I think there's two lessons I'd take from Rachel's history as it was given here. The first is that any company that relies on ad revenue is doomed. Selling ads in an ethical way requires you to say no to so many things that advertisers want. The second is that in the Uber case, from the beginning their disregard for the law was apparent. That should be a good warning sign as well. It's one thing to ignore unjust laws as an individual; we can have moral agency for reasons other than profit. A corporation is solely a prodit seeking machine and if you build disregard for laws it disagrees with into its behavior, you're going to have a bad time.
