Why does Apple insist on supporting bullying with the blue/green bubbles? (www.npr.org)

This is the worst part about Apple. I support apple at my work but it gets harder and harder to hear my daughters talk about the bullying on text groups.

WTF is wrong with Apple?

This is a people problem, not a technology problem.

If it’s not bubbles, it’s the style of jeans, or where you come from, or which football team you support. Bullies will always find something to use.

Imagine caring about the colour of speech bubbles and calling it "bullying". Some people can't be helped.

Teenagers very much do. Apple does as well. You've obviously disconnected from it and so your opinion is irrelevant.

I care about the color of the message insofar as it indicates whether it’s encrypted or not.

If not color, what should they switch to in order to still communicate this information to the user?

The article isn’t clear on how encryption will work with RCS. Guess I’ll be looking into that.
