Note that for short messages, hashes are unlikely to effectively conceal the content. English text has about 1 bit of information per character, and auto-sent messages are going to contain even less information. Not that google is likely to have a particular interest in that one-time code you receive via SMS, but it could almost surely brute-force the hash in a fraction of a second if it did.
