I wonder if Beeper (https://www.beeper.com) uses something like this to get you a macOS iMessage instance in the cloud. Was always curious how they could tout that seemingly impossible feature, but looks like this is a way to do it.

Beeper is interesting, what black magic are they doing!

For real, they're using old iPhones??? How does that even work?? Jailbroken but then?

Hook into iMessage and just send and receive messages using its "API" rather than having to work out authentication.

Wouldn't you then need an old iPhone for each user?

Indeed.
