So in the new upcoming major feature update for IOS, Apple is adding RCS support in there messaging app. What are the privacy implications of adopting RCS?

Is there any other apps that have RCS support on Android other than Google's own messaging app?

The reason for my asking is because I was considering migrating my relatives' messaging app to a RCS supported one because they will probably most likely enjoy the extra bandwidth of RCS.

Note, they're already using Signal, Telegram, and WhatsApp for most of their conversations.

You’ve likely accepted it without knowing, or at least been registered as accepting. Google are using dark patterns all over android to get away with this sort of thing.

What are you going to do, sue them.
