Why does Apple insist on supporting bullying with the blue/green bubbles? (www.npr.org)

This is the worst part about Apple. I support apple at my work but it gets harder and harder to hear my daughters talk about the bullying on text groups.

WTF is wrong with Apple?

We used to do lots of dumb things on phones that we don't do anymore. The green sucks to look at and there's no reason it can't be changed by the user except Apple doesn't want to let you.

At the time of the iphone 1 Apple argued that apps were stupid. The world has changed, yet somehow I can't change a text color.

you’re missing the point. apple isn’t trying to subconsciously convince people SMS sucks by using an ‘ugly’ color for SMS. they clearly do not think green is ugly, that’s just your opinion.

I get that you want the option to change colors, and that’s understandable. Just don’t project your subjective preferences into corporate conspiracies that make no sense.
