I think the outcome where the bicycles exist and the company pays a fine is way better than the outcome where they ask permission and no one gets to use the bicycles. I'm pretty confident that social pressure or technology can solve the littering issue, too, leaving forgiveness approach with no drawbacks at all. I would be happy to step over the bicycles, seeing it as a sign of an actual innovation in society that people are really using and benefiting from.
