@cassidy@mastodon.blaede.family @motoridersd@pug.ninja Not all RCS implementations on Android are E2EE, either. RCS encryption on Android Messages is specific to Google extensions and their own servers. Device manufacturers that don't ship Google's version of the messaging app (yet still support RCS) don't get encryption, either.

@robert @cassidy@mastodon.blaede.family @motoridersd@pug.ninja yep - the E2EE spec for RCS is new as of last year (despite the many years of vague claims about RCS E2EE support) and AFAICT *nothing* handles that spec yet: https://www.gsma.com/solutions-and-impact/technologies/networks/gsma_resources/gsma-rcs-universal-profile-3-0-specifications/
