HOWEVER, here’s an important tidbit from the Vergecast: Google seems to believe it’s possible to evolve RCS to support end-to-end encryption in the future. https://t.co/tLiG0AGIuC — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Wherein I rant about RCS again. T-Mobile isn’t supporting it on the Pixel 3 and 3A. Or maybe the other way around. Whatever: the US RCS rollout is broken. https://t.co/yD5xM7XkKi — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Great live Vergecast with Steph Cuthbertson and Hiroshi Lockheimer. We talked Android Q, Security, Updates, RCS, Fuchsia, and much more. Also @lockheimer burned me to the ground a thousand times using post-it notes. Don’t miss this one: https://t.co/5zdIOkzvDi — PolitiTweet.org

Really really great check in on how real restaurant workers are reacting to Google Duplex one year after it was announced by @nattgarun . The last line of this piece slays me. https://t.co/6US1h5YPwy — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, @dcseifert did the reporting here so please go read his story: https://t.co/D9HLasv8Ld — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

I don't know the full story here at all, but it seems clear Google feels the same way about Works with Nest that it does with OG Nest accounts: too insecure. But the way it's happening feels like an unforced error to me right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

But if you are going to shut down a (possibly too) open platform like Works with Nest and replace it with a partnership model, then you need to give companies enough time to make those partnerships Otherwise it smells a lot like being anticompetitive in the name of privacy — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Google has always taken more of a partnership approach with Google Assistant integrationals, as opposed to Alexa's willy-nilly anything and anybody approach. There are benefits and drawbacks to both approaches. https://t.co/wLhOTPfPUc — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

Google really should have given more warning to Nest partners and it probably should extend the timeline to shutting down works with Nest. Unless there's like a massive, undisclosed problem. Which, if so, disclose it. — PolitiTweet.org
