As OP said, Apple can open up the iMessage protocol and still mark the non-iMessage mesagges inside their app as they used to. Apple didn't create the green/bubble class divide, but they sure are enjoying the ride and can claim they're innocent (since it's technically the users, not the company discriminating).
Anyways, I'm all for open protocols and cross-platform compatibility. If some iUsers decide to ghost me because my Signal message appears in a different color, then screw them. Can I make them purple or orange?
