Have you guys heard that Uber is being sued for illegal....hang on for a second....I'm getting a text. :D

The plaintiff, who seeks to represent a larger class of consumers affected by the same issue, alleges that Uber’s practice of contacting potential customers via text messages and phone calls violates the Telephone Consumer Protection Act because the company does not ensure the accuracy of the telephone numbers it’s provided, leading consumers to routinely receive unsolicited messages from the ride-sharing service.
 
I can attest that the number of texts I get per day from Uber is unreal. It is 1600 and I am already on the 4th today.
 
Plus it sounds like it's the case of some moron inputting the wrong cell phone number and it went to the wrong party. Hardly a reason to sue Uber over this.
