The issue is not just that Uber AND lyft business model broke the law. The author is pointing out that the business culture at Uber was designed and intended to break the law, and this is evidenced by a large list of illegal actions. To be explicit – Uber’s board, chose to pursue actions which were clearly illegal, not actions which were “morally dubious”. More over, their legal counsel worked to aid them in this endeavor. This leaves behind a firm geared towards condoning and considering illegal activity – an issue which is not matched by Lyft. This is the critical difference. Its also why I have long recommended that people stay away from Uber.
