Is RCS an open standard? I’ve seen some people say it is and others it isn’t and now I’m very confused. Can you please give me a definitive answer?

    That seems incredibly dumb and backwards. I guess doing it this way helps them expedite its death like all their other products lol

      I was about to say the dumb and backwards part was not having basic stuff like encryption in the standard. 🤷

      It would also let them claim that its an open standard that anyone can use and they’re contributing to open source, even if no-one could effectively use it in the same way that they implemented it.

      It’s XMPP all over again.
