Note, this doesn’t work with any other (hypothetical) RCS clients, this is not a part of the RCS standard, it’s a feature entirely proprietary to Google Messages.

I don’t think so, https://reddit.com/r/Android/s/dbT0PE4eft has a response on whether or not it is open source

That is my understanding, is it’s encryption on top of RCS. So even if another messaging system were to use RCS you wouldn’t be able to read them.
They have not and likely will not.
Every now and then, I consider using a Google product, and then I remember this.
RCS is not a Google product but the official SMS successor.
Excellent. Looks like Google is finally on the right path to making a good messager after all these years.
How long until they kill it off like everything else that worked well?
