I think there's a substantial difference between impossible and illegal. Uber was mostly possible (don't want to minimize their efforts in operation optimization) but also illegal/unregulated. Same for AirBnB.

Personal Computers on the other hand... that's almost all innovation with a dash of unregulated (garage companies, surreptitious deals, etc).
