Is it time for Google to annoy IPhone users?

I think it may even be past time, honestly, if Google et al are serious about RCS.

Apple is really good about putting out good products and protecting them, and it seems like it's about time for their users to see a downside to Apple's approach with iMessage.

Blackberry messaging, like IMessage had some real pluses, but, imo, Apple should have to work harder to promote proprietary technology than its been doing.

Open standards are good!!

Walled gardens suck!!!

I'm glad to see that Europe is forcing Apple to use USB-C. Apple "lightning" is stuck at 0.48Gbs while even the crappiest USB-C devices communicate at 5Gbs and some up to 40Gbs. USB-C can also charge at up to 240W while Apple Lightning seems to peak at 30W.

@ElwoodBlues I've trained you well, my padawan. Go forth and critique the disgusting waste of money that apple is.

I've been tearing into the Shit speeds on lightning cables for a while.
