yeah, Apple has previously said that green means not encrypted, implying that blue is encrypted. Where the SMS aspect of green is just happenstance, and again only implying that the blue of imessage is just happenstance too.
I think this phrasing is just a CYA thing. But I’m definitely curious.
- MBCook 2y agoBut I think that’s just because SMS wasn’t encrypted. If it was they would just explain things differently. I think the number one thing for them is features. Blue equals all the features, green equals whatever works. So even if RCS were to be done encrypted, which I doubt, it wouldn’t support the message effects or text formatting or iMessage apps. So they would still use blue to differentiate. As things exist today, encryption is simply what they think is most important so that’s what they lead with.
