Is this the historical equivalent of Uber ignoring legal constraints in hopes of later finding a work-around or a change in the law?

- seszett 11y agoMaybe if Uber were convinced they were saving lives and if they did not expect to financially benefit from working around the law. I don't think that's the case though.

- icebraining 11y agoif they did not expect to financially benefit from working around the law. How so? The guy had an important position in the (private) company that supplied the water and was being sued for not cleaning it up. It's not exactly a direct incentive, but it's there. That's not to mention the fame that comes from being the first person to clean up a city's water supply.
