The green bubble complaining must have the lowest level of credibility among all the anti-apple complaints. The method of "monopolization" here is to make their product cooler than their competitors product. The idea that we need to government to step in and force apple to make android cool too is so silly.
The method of monipolization is to increase lock in, by Apple's own internal emails. There are emails of them literally saying that to themselves. Why do people conjure hypotheticals on why Apple is just "acting for their users interest" when we have legal evidence of them saying that their plan for iMessage is to cause user lock in.
If the green bubbles didn’t violate Apples own accessibility standards for text contrast (https://medium.com/@krvoller/how-iphone-violates-apples-acce... would agree it’s a silly complaint. But there is no technical limitation requiring that a message be less readable because it came from an Android. So it’s not just “less cool” they actively make the user experience worse for you when you are messaging someone that doesn’t have an iPhone.
