Keep in mind that RCS is still SMS to anyone without Google Messages.
Also, the encryption in RCS is problematic - last time I read how it worked I wasn’t convinced it was as secure as advertised (I don’t recall why, but I think it’s because it’s not really E2E).
For a time, RCS was not e2ee, neither in one-on-one or group chats. I think they changed both to finally being encrypted. Obviously, even if they are, the sender and receiver are both known by either your phone provider or Google itself… Or both.
