Definitely my main issue with "RCS" it's all controlled by Google.

Apple has been very specific that they won't be using Google's version of RCS, they'll be implementing the spec and then leaving it up to your carrier.

In the US most carriers do use Google's implementation but your carrier can already send your unblockable SMS messages.
