Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating for Uber or sexual harassment or any nonsense like that.
I (seriously) just want to know if you're advocating for giving every company with a > 0.0% harassment rate the Uber treatment.
Imagine if your local PD reported that they only ignored .01% of 911 calls. Would you find that acceptable?
Maybe if it went all the way to the top, and Travis Kalanick himself stood down for a while, maybe then you'd ease off?
Twenty were _fired_ for sexual harassment issues.
Given what we know of Uber's internal culture, my money says that many, many more were counseled, reprimanded or whatever than just those twenty.
There's now a new anonymous hotline where employees can report harassment, so presumably any new reported cases will be investigated by the law firm that was hired for this.
Well those are the ones that were actually fired.

Seemingly:
215 issues investigated
100 dismissed
57 still under investigation
31 in counseling or training
7 reprimanded in writing
more than 20 fired
215/12000 is near to 2%, such a number of "cases", even if half of them are dismissed should trigger each and every possible alarm.
20/12000 = 0.001666...
20/12000 ≠ "0.001%"
And that's only the count of people fired.So far.
It's not the count of disciplinary actions of any sort, not even the count of cases that were investigated, and certainly not the count of incidents, full stop.
