If you‘re interested in what you call “corporations of people”, one classic sociology paper is about Medici Florence, http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~snijders/PadgettAnsell1993.pdf

That is an awesome read! Thanks for the link. A bit long but it articulates the notions of structural control much more clearly than I did.

Not to stand in Uber's defense, but it wouldn't surprise me if they end up not firing anyone over this. At the end of the day, they run a business, and one misconduct like this could make investors unhappy.
