Why are there rules about the content of text messages at all? Do we need any rules besides (1) no unsolicited bulk texts, i.e., spam, and (2) no texting people who have told you not to text them anymore?

People don’t want SMS spam anymore than they want car warranty scam phone calls, therefore carrier guidelines exist for SMS messages sent from applications (versus persons).
