Well then go on, why am I wrong? Or do you just not like my opinion and are grasping at straws to make you feel better?

RCS is an open standard created by GSMA. That’s why you’re wrong.

Googles implementation of the RCS standard has extra things not included in the base standard. The encryption for example is something Google added that is not part of the standard.
Additionally, Google does not allow any other implementation of RCS to talk to their jibe servers to pass messages without them explicitly approving it.
So what Google has functionally created is a proprietary messaging service built on top of an open standard. This is what most people miss about all of the coverage of Google pushing for RCS.

I didn’t know that Google built encryption on top of the standard, I thought it was part of it.
Besides that though, Google would be making the dumbest business move if they didn’t let Apple’s potential RCS implementation talk to theirs.
