Is Uber getting too vital to fail?

I belive Uber is not special in its technical/innovative ways. It is just like a matchmaking application, connecting the people who 'drive' with the people who 'go' somewhere.

The major problem Uber solved is about the laws and culture. When this culture is established and lawmakers recognise this "everyone can become a taxi driver, without a licence or a yellow car" thing, coming up with an Uber-like system is pretty easy.

In short terms, it is not the Uber being too vital but the culture and laws that make it happen.
