Again iMessage? Would be nice if you could expel insecure components like that from your walled apple paradise

  There’s literally always been a toggle to disable iMessage since the day it was introduced to the shared messaging app.

  Every app is insecure they just choose iMessage because every iPhone has it and you can send the payload with just a phone number making it slightly easier to exploit.

    "slightly easier"? For someone to send me a message on signal, they have to either social engineer me into adding a number I don't know, or they have to steal a device from one of my existing contacts, get it unlocked, and send from it. There is no way for them to go from knowing my phone number to me receiving and processing an untrusted image without them first somehow becoming a contact. iMessage has no option to require friending first, before receiving unsolicited messages. That doesn't seem like a "slightly easier" thing, but a rather significant difference.
