That’s some hard bs but I’m assuming he’s mostly referring to Google services like workspace and search.

Google doesn’t own RCS though. Why would it be up to them?

I mean for sensible human beings who are able to look past the colour of a digital bubble, this change breaks a lot of barriers for people who have iphones due to complications of texting with SMS. Those complications will no longer exist and there would be less incentive to stick with Iphones unless they are buried in the ecosystem.

But Google has their own version. Why would they be to blame?

Don’t think it was reasonable to expect it to be blue but it being the same as SMS is just dumb. At least a different shade would make sense but this just seems petty for the sake of perpetuating discrimination.
