Just what we need: more services to depend on the already-obsolete SMS. From the standpoint of a gov't agency, that decision makes a lot of sense, but just further illustrates to me how badly we need to transition to messaging protocols like XMPP that are designed for use in the modern world.

- cgranade 16y agoOh, definitely. It's also a bit of a wasted opportunity in some ways, as it becomes harder to retire SMS with each service built on top of it.
