It's easy to accidentally hit the microphone button that appears for any text field in almost all smartphone apps. The phone then transcribes any speech it hears and enters it into the field. I've done this.
It's not hard to imagine a scenario where the driver had the message passenger view open in the Lyft app and accidentally recorded the conversation this way. This probably happens a lot but this time the driver also accidentally sent it rather than deleting it.
This seems much more likely than a company recording someone without their consent but also texting them the transcription.

I'm not sure why you think that message is being "clearly sent". I would discourage you from drawing conclusions based on the open roles with no knowledge of who is already employed in each location.
Instead, if a role is of interest to you, apply and you will get to speak to engineers from Lisbon during the process. They could answer any questions you have about where decisions are made and the autonomy of teams. I think you would be pleasantly surprised by the answers.
Alternatively, my email is in my profile. I can put you directly in touch with someone in the engineering team in Lisbon if you'd like to speak to them before speaking to a recruiter.
