Yes. Austin banned Uber due to the fact they weren't doing the background checks that everyone else was required to do. (Houston banned Lyft for similar reasons.) There were a lot of other rideshare companies that sprung up, to fill the gaps that were happy to take the place of Uber and Lyft AND comply. Uber and Lyft got the legislature to prohibit the cities from regulating rideshare.
