I believe VPNs are illegal, just be aware.

IIRC so are certain types of encryption.

So that would mean iMessage can't be used since its always encrypted.

What messenger isnt encrypted anymore is the better question. Even Facebook messages have been encrypted for a long time.

I would assume server side encryption probably ok, but end to end encryption is not...

again, what messaging isn't end to end these days?
SMS of course. -

LOL, good point.

SMS of course.One can argue that SMS isn't "these days."

You can't use any tech with real time voice. It's not about security, it's that it is illegal to bypass their phone carrier for voice traffic.

Maybe outside the USA.but around here, I don’t buy it.

Meaning... it's not a current tech. It's an intentional use of a non-current tech. Like using cursive.

Not everyone can afford to keep up.
It’s the lowest common denominator approach. -

oh brother.. yes, moms and dads everywhere in the USA are intentionally using non-current tech. Going out of their way to use non-current tech... I just forgot that.

It’s the lowest common denominator approach.Actually it's not. It's always been for the rich and elitest to use a very expensive "throwback" technology. It's like hipsters using typewriters. They are not cheap nor effective. They are cumbersome and expensive today, a way to flaunt being able to waste time and money.
Email has been the free, lowest common denominator for decades now.

Of course they are, it's called hipsters. What universe have you lived in?
Did you forget that SMS was old, died out, and then came back as a response to too much tech and people liking using old things just to show that they didn't have to modernize?

Email is not modern by any stretch of the imagination.

Not new, but it is the current state of the art. SMS is the polar opposite.

SMS was invented in 1992, email was invented in 1972.
How does that compute that SMS is not more modern than email?

By not being a factor
SMS is a legacy tech, it's been superseded by loads of things that are converged. Anything non-converged is legacy, period. Email, while older in some senses, remains the state of the art for what it does, literally nothing competes with it. So by being state of the art, rather than a legacy tech, it's more modern.
