This has to be illegal and if it isn't it should be.

For some reason tech companies get a pass on a ton of regulations just because they're a different form of whatever they're replacing.

If you have money, legality means nothing. Uber has money.

They can send notifications through their app (which you installed and very probably accepted to in the terms and conditions) without any legal concern so yeah no.

Even if you try fighting it they'll just say hey it's your phone man just uninstall the app
