Moreover, if those vendors are concerned about this, why don't they
simply filter them out whenever a message leaves their network. They
could tell their users that they shouldn't use these symbols in
communication with outsiders. Actually, they could use a fallback
string, which is inserted in place of the emoji, such as :potato:
