They're kinda weird positions in this instance, is the problem. To the first one, yeah, mob justice isn't great. But is this dude facing mob justice? Who even is he? Do you know? I certainly don't. Who has gone after this guy?

If the answer is that no one has any idea who this guy is or has done anything directly angled at him, then this isn't mob justice. The only justice that's occurred is that the dude was reported for breaking the law and got fired over it.

Which gets to the second thing. Yeah, Uber is an evil corporation. But what are they supposed to do here? It's not like they could have changed the situation by informing him that this was breaking the law. He knew full well, because he was explicitly told so.

Are we just arbitrarily mad at Uber for not being as much in the direct line of fire regarding this law? Cause if that's the problem then there're limits to Uber's influence, and I honestly have no idea how else the law could be designed.

Cause the way I would think it'd be designed, the only way that's plausible, is that the company is liable for breaches of the law in question. Is that not how it is? Cause that seems likely how it is. This Uber driver isn't getting sued for this, y'know?

So, we're just mad at Uber for taking action to protect themselves from liability because one of their workers broke the law in a way which hurt a member of an oppressed class? Are those not the conditions under which we expect a firing?

No, what she said was that in this case four drivers were reported, one got terminated and three got a warning

One of the ones who got a warning was apparently offended enough by the warning to voluntarily quit driving for Uber over it, take that as you will
