I don’t expect Apple to ever allow unsecured devices into the iMessage network.

iMessage worked fine on Jailbroken iOS devices since.. always.

Jailbreaking iOS doesn’t affect the OS on the Secure Encoave chip. Crypto attestations of device identity can be protected from alteration by jsilbreakers.

> unreliable message delivery and ordering, and photos and videos pixelated to hell.
Unless I've been an edge case, SMS/MMS has been nothing BUT super reliable on my phones in Australia. Can you provide a demo ? I'd like to see what you're talking about since maybe I do have the photos and videos pixelated, I just don't see this.
Because the overlap between spammers and unscrupulous people with credit card numbers is 0?
They're just going to use prepaid cards they scammed from people to buy iMessage and absolutely spam the crap out of that.
I would (grudgingly, because the whole thing is just stupid) pay 3 bucks a month or so to be able to message iPhone users from Android without dealing with unreliable message delivery and ordering, and photos and videos pixelated to hell. I have a ton of barely-recognizable videos of my niece and nephews from my sister because she always forgets that sending me video over MMS is a boatload of fail.
