DID YOU KNOW

Did you know that 8 trillion text messages get sent every day worldwide? Not convinced yet? A text message clock on Simple Texting shows the real-time number of text messages. It shows texts sent this day, this month, and this year. On a related note, an average adult spends a total of 23 hours a week texting. Interestingly, text messages used to be limited to 160 characters. This is based on an inference made from a conducted study in 1985. Which reveals that messages on postcards were nearly less than 150 characters. However, the internet is transforming the classic way of text messaging into Instant Messaging (IM).

Along with the emergence of different Instant Messaging apps nowadays, there are concerns. One primary concern of cellphone users is privacy. To keep privacy when texting, users would delete their messages or resort to text hiders. There are apps designed to help people hide or delete text messages. People have the right to privacy when it comes to text messages. In 2014, a statement from Washington’s Supreme Court was cited in the article as the issue of privacy was present in two related cases. It has been said that senders and receivers are free to exchange messages. Without fear of government or any interruption or intrusion. To educate us more, text messages include phone calls, sealed letters. As well as other traditional forms of communications. Amidst all the issues, one intriguing question is about the future of SMS this 2018. Text messaging marks its 25th birthday this 2018. Experts say it could still serve us more than its purpose because of its fast and efficient nature.
