My old #Rust in #Android team just published a blog post showing Android continues to improve #security by pushing for more memory safe code: https://security.googleblog.com/2025/11/rust-in-android-move-fast-fix-things.html
The results are amazing: Android now writes more Rust than C++, and the **Rust changes land faster** due to fewer revisions and faster code reviews. Medium and large changes are **rolled back about 4 times less** than changes written in C++.
I think this is also the first time that the use of #MLS in #RCS is mentioned in a #Google blog post.
This is what I was working on as my last project: I owned the server-side code ( #Rust running inside a C++ server on #Borg) and I was responsible for designing and implementing the identity provider used on both client and server.
You will find the latest MLS-RCS spec here: https://www.gsma.com/solutions-and-impact/technologies/networks/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/RCC.16-v2.0.pdf – and I'm looking forward to when my code comes to a phone near you 😄
