Note that when a service says "we have now enabled [feature X] for ... SMS", without also explicitly specifying MMS, then they probably haven't done MMS.

Although SMS and MMS are presented similarly on devices, they're actually two wildly separate technologies and that difference usually bubbles up into how gateways handle them, translating to "update SMS handling" and "update MMS handling" usually being relegated to two different sprints.

Seems like semantics, since MMS are synced by turning on "SMS Sync" in their app. I'm fairly technologically savvy, and I made the assumption anything going through the "SMS Sync" would be encrypted.

I got burnt by that and now all of the photos in my MMS, including some that the people who sent would prefer not ever be public, are unencrypted on a server somewhere... probably in perpetuity.

That's on me, I took the risk... just wanted to inform others.

I definitely won't be trying PB again.
