Nope.

Same company, yes. Just do not install the facebook app. Then they can
not share the phone book.

Over the years I would have missed thousands of photos (and comments)
from my extended family while they were growing up in various parts of
the country/world if not for Facebook/Instagram. IMO it's a good thing,
warts and all. YMMV...

Nope. Couldn't be at CWI when the recordings were made.

  Yeah, I wasn't impressed either, but it brought back some nice

  I meant, they also showed some old photos, but since I don't know you
face-to-face, I couldn't tell if you were in this photos.

i.e. nearly seven years later.

MMS still works but de facto it is dead in all markets. WhatsApp and 
other mennsgers are much more efficient in sending pics.

I don't understand how you say that sms/mms is dead.
Why don't I know anyone using whatsapp for sms/mms in the usa?

In the USA Facebook messenger is more popular messenger.

Sorry, this is not true. Go cross the pond to the west and you will see
many people using MMS and not knowing what wasap is.

It is not dead on _all_ markets, far from it. It is very alive.

it's very true. 

whatsapp, facebook messenger, viber, signal, imessage, snapchat and
others have almost entirely replaced sms and mms for several reasons,
including cost, privacy and features.

I travel al lot in the USA and I can tell you this is not true. And 
Facebook Messenger is there what WhatsApp is in Europe.

SMS/MMS plays no role anymore in personal communication. Even not the 
most senior friends and relatives are using SMS or MMS anymore.

My doctor's appointment reminders are via SMS. When one of my credit
cards is used I immediately get notified by SMS (of the amount and
location - handy for keeping an eye on fraud and the wife). My sensitive
accounts send me 2-step verification codes by SMS. Virtually all my
family non-verbal phone communication is by SMS (YMMV). Verizon warns me
when I am hooked up to a Mexican tower by SMS. So in my part of the
world your stated demise of SMS is greatly exaggerated...

  For MMS, Joerg's statement is somewhat overstated. For SMS, it's - for
reasons such as the ones you mentioned - utter nonsense.

  This is not the first - and probably not the last - time, he poses
his personal views, situation, etc. as worldwide universal truths.
Apparently he did not learn from his last nearly-absolute statement, so
this time he cranked it up a notch and made a totally-absolute one.

In the UK usage has peaked, but it's still 82 billion/year with a

The providers are desperate because SMS hardly plays a role in personal 
communication any more. For dentist reminders and credentials of 
forgotten logins and that kind of info it has a lease of life.

MMS is dead anyway and never delivered what they expected from this 
primitive service.
