Like others have said on threads about Beeper, it is a great app, but will just be a cat and mouse game for eternity, until it gets shutdown or a lawsuit is filed by one side. I don't expect this to be the last outage.
This is absurd. It's like reverse engineering your cable provider's decoder box, making a business to sell the pirate copies and then going back to the cable provider to nag about outages or whatever. In what reality is this good idea?<p>Also, we're talking about private messages, you can't "just" introduce a third party to have them copy-pasted-as-a-service on some shady devices.<p>If I wanted to send insecure messages to friends who don't own an iPhone, I'd send an SMS. But really just WhatsApp.
