The plan I have is a grandfathered plan and the vendor did a classic price straddle: I have 4GB of data with tethering but have to pay for SMS texts, and unlimited texts with 3GB of data would be about the same $. I prefer iMessage, it is a secure point to point transmission.
As is Whatsapp and a myriad of other messaging apps.
SMS is not wide open, of course. It would take a dedicated hacker within close proximity. I'm just not that important.
The carriers of course can be compelled to turn over SMS records, They have done likewise with other messaging systems. Now Apple and a few others say they can't or won't turn over records but that position has not been tested by the SCOTUS yet. Seeing how our rights our getting trampl.... well I'll leave that as it is. :)
