Google Messages turning on RCS by default, group E2E encryption launches

Only “benefit” of RCS I’ve seen is the avalanche of spam from companies. I’ll be turning it off. Don’t text that much anyway.
i mean sms messages are extremely expensive and when you need to contact someone over sms rcs can be a life saver
I didn’t know you could even get a phone subscription without unlimited calls, sms, and mms anymore.
I actually have a dirt cheap $15/mo Public plan that has 250MB data and 100 minutes… and even that has unlimited SMS.
15$ for 250MB of data? God that’s expensive
It’s literally the cheapest plan I can find anywhere that includes any data. I can get $8/mo for unlimited talk and text but zero data.
