I'll respectfully disagree; the point was that civil disobedience is valid and necessary when a law is absurd or doesn't serve the good of the people. The fact that one of our founding fathers said it makes it no less relevant or profound today. And I don't even like Uber; I think in general they treat their drivers like crap, and I realize that they are only flouting this law because it stands in the way of their business model. But just as with Tesla (a company I do respect), they are breaking new ground and showing the rest of the country that these archaic laws exist only to protect the establishment. The laws should be reexamined, and if the people find that the laws are incompatible with their needs, the laws should be changed.
