You can disable iMessage altogether. Sure you can't uninstall it, but you can choose to simply not have it enabled on the phone: https://support.apple.com/en-us

Basically no user would do this but it's not somehow magically forced on the user.
- Two4 3y agoYou could also disable internet explorer - the antitrust comes in when you pre-empt any competitive consumer choice by forcibly bundling the application, iirc.
- wpm 3y agoiMessage is an entirely separate service. It’s inactive until you activate it. It costs nothing to not enable. My dad refused to turn it on until last year but his iCloud account functioned without issue so he wasn’t “punished” or dark patterned into turning it on. Is the Camera app an antitrust issue too? Any bundled application?
