Wouldn't your iPhone still receive spam SMS text messages with Apple Messages? And isn't Apple Messages commonly exploited by NSO Group (Zero-clicks)? Maybe I'm wrong, but this does not appear to be very fort-like.

- dwaite 3y agoFor iPhone there are two tiers - the carrier provided SMS spam filtering, and apps written to provide such filtering[1]. 1: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sms_and_call_reporting/sms_and_mms_message_filtering/creating_a_message_filter_app_extension https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sms_and_call_repor...
- rezonant 3y agoOh, so there's no builtin message filtering at all?? This explains some things. Why wouldn't they just add a spam filter. Is there still iCloud email addresses? Do they have spam filtering?
