Ok but what about when companies like Uber break the law and it's celebrated? Or when the law gets changed to protect existing companies from competition like Tesla's competitors have been successfully lobbying for?

It's a very simplistic world view to think that Uber defying regulation and hacking someone's voicemail are in the same ballpark.

I think most people (on HN and otherwise) can agree that laws protecting someone’s voicemail account are justifiable.
