&gt; In our testing, 10-20 iMessage users can safely use the same registration data.<p>Gee... I wonder what Apple might fix next in this cat + mouse game...

I believe this also applies to plain Beeper Cloud according to the Beeper Updates channel inside the app. Been a user since May of this year and it was working beautifully. RIP, end of an era. I just sold all of my Macs recently and don&#x27;t think I&#x27;ll acquire a Mac just for this reason :(

Next requirement will be buying an iPhone. Oh well..<p>Personally I feel it’s a simple price to pay if you must have the “blue” bubble or be in such a circle that doesn’t move to a cross platform app ;-)<p>As someone who has been fully on fruit company devices for more than a decade, both professionally and personally and never used iMessage - never had to or wanted to, this whole circus looks absolutely ridiculous.

&gt; Beeper CEO Eric Migicovsky [...] spoke out against Apple&#x27;s iMessage monopoly<p>I hope he will also speak out against Signal&#x27;s Signal Monopoly, and Facebooks Whatsapp monopoly

If they had money or good representation, they would file an antitrust suit.
