Probably not much of an impact given that anything that makes law enforcement more efficient in the US gets labeled either racist or orwellian by advocacy groups since equity is all that matters now.
That isn't really the whole picture though. In my area (SoCal) Lime and its competitors were game changing and made me willing to use our garbage public transit. The reason no one uses them anymore is because, as usual, the bicyclists and environmentalists shrieked until enough legislation had been passed to hobble something they viewed as a threat. Since then I've just returned to driving since the unhindered scooters were the only thing making the last mile worth enduring the shitshow of crazies and crassness that is a bus ride in any of our major cities.
