It's not fair these companies skirt well known and age old laws to create an unfair advantage(and wealth) for themselves, by simply ignoring those laws. Play by the same rules as your competitors do and see how well you fair. Disruption by evading legalities isn't really all that impressive... the cartels and mobsters have done it for decades.

Uber, for example, blatantly ignoring local bylaws and regulations makes perfect sense when seen through libertarian tinted goggles.
