So Google will reciprocate and open up its RCS platform right? Right? I doubt it.

I don’t care as long as the result isn’t less secure or less private than iMessage is now. Google has zero percent of my trust at this point, on the privacy front.

RCS is an open standard not owned by Google

I meant their closed network for it, not the standard.

Just thought it was worth clarifying since a lot of people treat RCS and Google Messages like the same thing when one is a Google product (Google Messages) and the other is an open standard (RCS)
Google Messages is built on RCS but if Apple wanted interoperability they would only need to support the open standard (RCS)

If this law passes they may very well have to.
