Really great to see senators fighting for what’s important.

Blue texts are not inclusive? Why does it matter if texts are blue or green?

I wouldn't call it a monopoly, but iMessage has ruined group texts.

I've always had an Android and never had any issues until iMessage emerged. No telling how many texts I've missed over the years and to the point where I will probably just switch to iPhone when this Galaxy dies.

Are you talking about not being added to a group text because you’d “screw it up”?

Apple sucks at that monopoly stuff. I've been buying cell phones since 1997 and have never had an iPhone.

She's a member of the iCult, doesn't even know Google's Android exists.

You can get around the blue thing without much trouble these days.

You can install Euro OS to get some nifty things.

Apple sells you a computer and says you can only do what I tell you you can do. This a fact. If you can't own what you buy then there is no piracy or theft it can't be owned and thus can't be stolen

Not being able to have a truly separate browser from Apple will eventually lead to problems for Apple. See I.Explorer and Microsoft.

That can't be real. How can she be taken seriously ever again?

That's a possibility, lol, but, no, talking moreso the random times I'll just not get a message, despite being part of the group text chain. Several times over the years, I've not gotten any of the initial texts and then get the rest of the conversation.

Liz has always struck me as someone who has way too much time on her hands.

I really think she overheard a staffer talking in jest and thought they were being serious and ran with it.

How the hell does Apple have a monopoly on smartphones when there are a dozen or more other smartphone manufacturers out there?

Also, c’mon, let’s stop leaving green text people out of the group chats. It’s just not right.

Whoever wrote that thought it was one of the most hilarious things on the planet.
