Because who is going to operate the servers?
Originally with RCS it was the carrier, but basically every carrier switched to using Jibe (by Google) for the backend.
And it sounds like Apple is going to operate their own as well.
Even if you get rid of every nuclear power plant, governments will still pursue bombs.
What about people who can’t be vaccinated?
That’s definitely a valid concern, I don’t think private enterprises should hold the secrets to protecting people from deadly diseases.
I’m amenable to the idea of getting first dibs on an idea you came up with (software, hardware, fiction…), but it’s been clearly abused to an insane degree by corporations who want to make a quick buck.
“Your body, your choice” has a limit once a super dangerous pathogen shows up and people start refusing the best tool we have to stop it for increasingly batshit reasons.

Only Up? More like only dashing face first into spikes as your jaded ego throws shade at you.
I’ve always said that the reason so many people have issues with Windows is because they’re installing “debloater” scripts and disabling core system components.

Ah yes, gag in the bag. 😃 For some reason I kinda like their “buttery jack”, it’s just disgusting enough to hit the spot sometimes.
Oh, okay. I found the option. Just didn’t know that was a thing.
