Nothing is stopping people from downloading whatever chat app they want to use. EU has done that.

Something is stopping another messaging app to have sms fallback and be the default messaging app on iOS. It's iOS.

But does it work? Can you, as an Android user, send text messages to and from people with iPhones?

I’m saying this is a national security issue. The government has a vested interest in killing off SMS as soon as possible.
