At least in the UK, group messaging over sms was always broken, and sending pictures still costs me extra money. The phone carriers brought it on themselves.

It's not the phone carriers' problem FYI.
It is in that if they supported MMS then we would not need to use WhatsApp
All phone carriers support MMS.
In the UK at least you need to pay for it - SMS and WhatsApp are free
The phone companies aren't bothered. You're the one locked into facebook.
