This “green bubble” shit is so fucking weird. Jesus, just grow up and use proper messaging services instead of SMS. And retire those fax machines while you’re at it.

“As any iPhone user who has ever seen a green text message, or received a tiny, grainy video can attest, Apple’s anticompetitive conduct also includes making it more difficult for iPhone users to message with users of non-Apple products,” US Attorney General Merrick Garland said.

Obligatory fuck Apple and their walled garden bullshit, but at the same time, I don’t think this guy is someone who should be leading the lawsuit.

He doesn’t seem to understand the technical reasons behind why “green bubbles” are garbage, and Apple is probably going to use that in its defense. They should really be focusing on Apple’s unwillingness to adopt RCS and not the consequences caused by the technical inferiority of SMS/MMS.
