The Not-So-Hostile Takeover of iMessage Technology
Episode: 86 Published: 12/21/2023
The Dreaded Green Bubble
It���s the shake-up of the century, or at least… it���s pretty big news. It seems that pretty soon, non-Apple devices will be able to support iMessage technology. So how is this even possible? In order to answer that question, Ned walks us through the history of text messaging technology, from SMS to BBM to MMS and beyond. If you���ve ever wondered if phone carriers have been ripping you off, or providing sub-standard security, spoiler alert: you���re right.
- The signaling channel behind SMS technology
- Wait, we send an average of how many texts per day?
- The infamous text fee hike of the mid-aughts
- BlackBerry Messenger���s origins
- What actually is RCS technology?
- How Beeper Mini accesses iMessage technology on non-Apple devices
