Ride-hailing company Lyft fought back against a citation by the Federal Communications Commission that said the company had been making customers receive unwanted text messages. “Lyft has not been using promotional texts to spam users with unwanted communications,” the company said. In the citation, the FCC said Lyft customers could not easily get out of receiving the texts and that they had to receive them to use the Lyft services. Lyft said it updated its terms of services and frequently asked questions to illustrate how to opt out of the messages. First National Bank also received a citation from the FCC Friday about unwanted messaging.
