Which bit of this does Apple own? The beeper app? The iMac? The code that beeper wrote to communicate with Apple's libraries? Apple doesn't own shit here. It's why they're being investigated for breaking beeper multiple times. You can let Daddy Apple hit you harder if you want but consumers don't have to take it. I'm hoping you're a troll because nobody can be this stupid without really really trying.

And no, you can't kick people out from your service at any time without cause. It turns out when you sell somebody a product that relies on services you agree to provide those services, what these people do on their Android phone with another company named beeper is none of your damn business. You can't ban them. It's fucked up. It isn't entitled to expect the products you bought from Apple to continue to work. Despite what you do with your Android phone to say otherwise is insane. So again, I hope your troll or that you come to realize that you have rights as a consumer. Anyway, I'm tapping out on this one. Have a good evening everybody.

Yeah, I'm sure every beeper user knew the details of the iMessage tos and deserves to be locked out of a major selling point of the iMac they purchased because they tried to get access to that feature on an android phone. It's incredibly unlikely anyone getting banned knew it was a possibility.

Just because apple put some bs in a TOS doesn't make it moral or even necessarily legal.

Anyway maybe don't be a shill for making the world worse for consumers even if you were correct with this terrible take.

Setting all my Alexa's to UK English got rid of all marketing "by the ways." I still regret going with the Alexa ecosystem but at least for now there is a workaround for the most rage inducing part of it.
