That doesn't seem to be the case based on how I am understanding what was said? If RCS goes through my carrier it is up to my carrier if it's Google's implementation or not? Meaning Google's servers or not? If the person I am talking too is on an Android phone I would also assume the same, that the text is likely going through Google's servers at some point. Needing to know whether or not a specific contact is using Google's RCS implementation seems like quite the hassle when "Google" is the flaw for RCS in my opinion. If I am misunderstanding, I would love to be corrected.
