    Exactly. There should not be a reason I can see that they can't incorporate it like they've done with SMS.

    If RCS is a standard what's stopping someone from writing an app that encrypts your plaintext? Sure, it'll leak meta data, but at least the actual plaintext is encrypted.

    Americans think the poor are slackers and they don't deserve anything. Even poor Americans think the "other" poor are slackers and don't deserve anything. Nothing will change until…

    That's fair, but the argument about Electron is how wasteful it is. Devs should just know better than to be that blatantly wasteful of resources. I know, we live in a world of abun…

    Not true. Those companies are focusing more on developer productivity than they are on the end user. Picking Electron is ALL about developers. Nothing more or less.
