This has nothing to do with laissez faire ideology and you are actually the one showing your ideological stance here.

Uber disrupts because it turns something which used to be a relatively high paying job into one that isn't because it doesn't need to be.

Uber subsdizing by taking on debt isn't unfair competition anymore than a supermarket who decided to sell something at a discount because it want to attract customers and I am pretty sure the appeal will allow Uber to operate again.

I was only answering the parent question: they limit the supply in order to control the price. That goes against laissez faire ideology for sure.

In my opinion, the most important point is that the Italians have the right to do so if they choose. Or to change their minds in the future.

" I am pretty sure the appeal will allow Uber to operate again." OK, good for them, in that case.
