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 though…

Several users recently reported that after using pypush—the tool that Beeper paid $25,000 for in order to build Beeper Mini—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 don’t buy Apple products if you don’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 can’tā€ and I’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?
