RCS isn't "a standard", it is a dozen or so. Every carrier does it differently, so does Google, so does maybe Apple. The ecosystem will be fragmented along carrier lines and OSes. And the software is a Google (Android branded, but same difference) thing, so of course they can and will kill it at some point. I'm not posting FUD, I'm trying to point out that RCS is looking dead on arrival. Industry people even said so 5 years ago. All the signs are there. The horse they are riding is stillborn. https://disruptivewireless.blogspot.com/2015/05/rcs-is-still...
