I’m honestly shocked. Getting ahead of the newly more agressive FTC?
Nah from their statement it sounds more like they’re only going to support the open standard and contribute to improving it in order to hurt Google and their proprietary implementation.
Apple already said they would NOT support any proprietary encryption, which indicates that they won’t support Google Jibe.
Apple need to get ahead of this before regulators jump in and force RCS without really understanding the protocol.
A lot of people think RCS is just iMessage, but open. Truth is, there are some pretty big gaps around things like encryption, being able to message without a phone number, etc.
Is Google Jibe really a new messaging platform from Google or satire? Because I really can’t tell at this stage.
It’s their implementation of RCS, yeah.
