You think that Uber is a service that people need? This sounds like exactly the kind of company that should be held to a high standard.

If we were to judge companies solely through a moral lense, sure.

But in the direct interest of capitalism, and indirectly consumers, it's terrible to restrict important businesses.

Important businesses are the ones that need restrictions the most. "Too big to fail" doesn't work, for society or consumers.
