    Can you show media produced by Apple that encourages bullying?

    People on iMessage don’t like “green bubbles” because a number of features are missing — real-time location sharing, message thread replies, high quality media, games directly in iMessage. Some, but not all, of this is fixed in RCS.

    Google could try solving this with a unified messaging app of their own, but they’ve failed to build a cohesive product around this without getting bored, and Samsung would inevitably try to build and run their own for no good reason, fracturing the Android community.

    Before Samsung starts trying to throw stones, they ought to look at their house first. They’re doing more to fracture Android than Apple ever could. To my knowledge, their object tracking tags won’t interoperate with Google’s service. They push two app stores on phones. They push their own separate tap-payment ecosystem, Samsung Pay.
