That's why they'd shoot the customers and get on with it :P.

I'd go back 10 years and I'd find multiple companies already doing the thing Uber does now (sans app, because there weren't app back then) - except they were doing it legally and weren't sociopathic about it.

People who envision and deliver solutions with no regard to anything else than their personal profit surely could determine the future - but it won't be a future any one of us would like to live in.
