And here is the part that no one seems to understand.

Apple forced the carriers to allow iMessage because they were in a power position to do so.

Meanwhile, GSMA has been fucking around since 2008, because no one could agree to anything.

Management by committee or take control and make it happen.

RCS and GSMA will not prevail.

2008 !
