This thread is incredible to be. I think it really is an HN/SV bubble, but people really can't stop comparing and equating moral failures and business success.

Moral failures (which Uber has shown time and time again) should not be compared to whether or not their business is useful to you. Business failures should be compared to business success, and moral bad should be compared with moral good. Uber has shown little to zero moral good. Not treating their employees who drive for them like crap would be a good place to start. Or their customers when raped would be another.
Lyft also provides huge business value in the exact same industry but without all the immoral baggage (as far as I've seen).
But this view on HN hat business value somehow replaces moral value mind boggling.
