- This headline is misleading.
>This applies to work-managed devices and doesn’t affect personal devices.
"All Your Text Messages" implies _all_ messages, which is not the case.

- Looks like it shows a very obvious warning in the messages app.
See screenshot here.
Headline is clearly click-bait.

- > While employees have long been aware of the risks in over-sharing on email — a woefully insecure technology that is easy for employers to monitor, texting has been seen as different.
I don't think they're even that aware, but yep - this will get some careless folks in trouble.
- It's like Google and Microsoft are converging, no?
- >"allowing employers to intercept and archive RCS chats on work-managed devices."
Key phrase there. You should already be treating any employer provided device as completely compromised. Never do anything on those that you wouldn't be perfectly comfortable having projected on a screen in front of your entire company at a meeting.
- Never assume anything you do on a work device or a work network is private
- I'm surprised this wasn't already the case for work phones?
- Periodic reminder that E2EE chat apps like Signal cannot protect you from a device that betrays you (MDM). I don’t use Signal on any work devices. I can’t do anything about my colleagues who chat with me and do.
