All messages are end to end encrypted. Also you don't need an Apple account and it connects directly to Apple servers.

But why the obsession with iMessage and apple product?!? We don’t care about the colour of the bubble!!!

Apparently American teenagers do and will straight up bully you if you have an Android.

If only it was just teenagers, physically grown ass men and women do this too. Have had some I thought were good friends cut me off from talking to them "because I didn't have an iPhone".

Network effect. Gradually over time my whole extended family wound up with iphones for one reason or another, and Android phones would consistently break our group threads. The last few holdouts (not ideologically, they just didn't need new phones) wound up switching to Apple afterwards to make everything smoother for the rest of us.

You do realize iMessage is more than just colored bubbles, right?
