Update: it may be limited to those using a hackintosh in conjunction with beeperserv (the jailbreak tweak). Still kind of lousy of them to lock the reddit topic thoughā€¦

Several users recently reported that after using pypushā€”the tool that Beeper paid $25,000 for in order to build Beeper Miniā€”Apple banned their genuine Apple hardware devices from accessing iMessage.

When their comments were shared to the r/Beeper subreddit, one of the mods whom Beeper appointed decided to lock the comments, citing the ā€œneed to investigate this furtherā€ and directing concerned users to ā€œreach out to support through the appropriate channels.ā€

But consumers have a choice. Just donā€™t buy Apple products if you donā€™t like their walled garden. Plenty of other options out there.

That's exactly what people mean when they say "Apple sucks".

So in this context, ā€œApple sucksā€ means ā€œI choose to not buy or use Apple products but still want to use their Apple-only messaging service and I canā€™tā€ and Iā€™m salty about thatā€?

Jesus wept. There are so many legitimate criticisms to make against the company, and this is where they want to make their stand?
