Thanks, yes SMS is insecure, but its also not routing through Google, so it is already more secure than RCS.
If we’re going only on security then Google Messages is a way better choice since they use Signal E2EE.
SMS has no encryption at all so Google, your carrier, and everyone in between can spy on the contents of all your SMS messages.
With RCS Google is only getting the metadata and no one can just listen in on your chats
No, it’s just
- not encrypted
- harvested by your carrier (but at least it’s not Google !1!1!1!1!1!1!)
- interceptable by the government
If Google could prove that messages are E2EE then I don’t give a shit who it routes through, they can’t read it.
