I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.
I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

RCS Texting on iPhone Now Works on More Carriers
iPhone has picked up support for Rich Communication Services (RCS) from more than a dozen wireless carriers in the United States, but the feature is still not universally supported. For example, Mint Mobile and Ultra Mobile still don't support RCS. Together, these two wireless operators have about three million subscribers in the United States. Curiously, both brands are owned by T-Mobile, one of Apple's major launch partners for RCS.
