Apple knows exactly what coloring the bubble differently will do. The bully is just a marketing instrument to the Apple executives. Normally, I would blame only the bully, but this seems willful on Apple's part. They want kids to feel bad and tell their parents they need an iPhone. They don't give a damn that they're just another point of friction in people's days.
- rosnd 4y agoDo you think there would be less bullying in a world without different coloured bubbles? Do you think the bubbles cause bullying? I'd imagine the bubbles are just an excuse, which would immediately be replaced with something else in their absence.
- protomyth 4y agoDo you think there would be less bullying in a world without different coloured bubbles? If the Apple's own messages were the same color as SMS or other avenues and Apple made a best faith effort to make sure messages worked, then there would be one less avenue of bullying. Do you think the bubbles cause bullying? Yep. Its status and a lot of bullying comes from the world reaffirming your status over others. I'd imagine the bubbles are just an excuse, which would immediately be replaced with something else in their absence. Maybe, but it wouldn't be Apple's fault.
