I think we are being too harsh on Uber. People are not feeling as bad as journalists are making it out to be. It's always fun to go after success especially when the failure happens to be the very differentiation that made it successful. Also Uber's trajectory of growth would not have been remarkably different had it dug in and paid the entire 2X pricing. No one but the Govt can do that when real costs are involved. People will forget about it just like we forget what the financial institutions did in 2008.
