Uber Hit With Cease And Desist In Boston, Promises To Continue Full Speed Ahead
Uber is facing heat from yet another city it operates in, this time receiving a cease and desist letter in Boston. On its blog today, Uber revealed that the letter came from the Division of Standards of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, ordering it to stop operating in that area.According to Uber, at the crux of the matter is that the National Institute of Standards and Technology doesn't have guidelines in place for GPS location technology. Until it does, the Division of Standards says Uber can't provide its app to the public. Of course, Uber disagrees, citing "extensive legal research prior to entering the city," and claiming that it doesn't violate any local laws or regulations.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/F7GmfbkaNGA/
