  • EU forced apple’s hand in implementing RCS

    This isn’t even a little bit true.

    If you need to claim this was external pressure, China was an actual driver of this but did not force this either.

    The main reason is to get away from legacy sms/mms systems. Sending and receiving on the iPhone side is messy as a poor user experience for Apple’s users.

    One small example is how SMS gets split at 160 and would often come out of order because of the limitations of sms.

    The cell networks are moving to a pure data layer model. Sms don’t send over data, RCS does. Same reason everything it volte now.

    Things currently fall back to sms, but expect it to be dead within a decade as future hardware cycles through (on the carrier side) and support is dropped in favor of streamlined protocols.

    Yeah. I supposed that is the joke of it. The image is actually describing is someone a tad left of center.

    Actual leftism extremists have nothing but excuses for the human right violations.

    It’s an essential requirement for being an extremist. The moment one recognizes they’re doing it and voices the concern, they are violently ejected from the movement.
