    Thankfully Apple matches this obsession - which is why we buy their products. 
    They don't care about your security. They care about looking like they care about your security.

    IMessage is walled off to non Apple users, not by enhanced encryption or 0 trust protocols, but by a green slip. That's the root of how these "hackers and spoofers" get iMessage to play nice; by forging the green slip.

    Apple doesn't allow 3rd party apps to access SMS messages for good reason.  SMS is regularly used for 2 factor authentication. If apps could access SMS, rogue apps could then send those messages off to other servers. Not cool.
    ANCS spec allows this to happen anyway, by any app on your iPhone.

    This isn't an issue for android because your SMS handler is an app the user gives a special privilege. SMSs are then sent to that app without the knowledge of other apps, except for apps given the special privilege of reading push notifications (smartwatch, phone to PC sync, etc) by the user
