I don't think at&t and Verizon are outright blocking text messaging.. The FCC (and consumers and businesses) would like to stop spam and scams. Similar to STIR/SHAKEN, no? There will be some fee involved just like there is a cost to implement and manage STIR/SHAKEN that will get passed down to business and consumers.
