I mean, maybe expensive dongles should be a thing of the past and Apple should invest in machine learning a bit more. My Pixel does a great job filtering out SMS spam, with 2 false positives (both automated messages) and zero false negatives in the last month.

I have received a single iMessage spam message in ten years, total. You would have, statistically, received at least 240 false positives in that time assuming current heuristics technology. I don’t think heuristics are the answer if your goal is Project Zero Spam.

My goal is not project zero spam, my goal is interoperability and the end of expensive dongles.
