So against the vendor's advice you sort of shot yourself. Appreciate taking one for the team but I don't see any risk to myself here as I have no intention of using Beeper.

Yep. I know I did something that could jeopardize the service but I will never chastise myself for it...and as someone who spends a sizeable sum yearly on Apple product, I'm going to make it my choice to boycott them unless they do a 180.

I won't abide a company punishing its users for wanting the convenience of picking up their text message convos from Linux because it's otherwise too distracting to pick up a phone each time.

Really happy to take one for the team. I mean that. This was going to happen at some point in the future whether or not I liked it, glad it happened now. I can't live in a world this connected where my linux box and 12 years of texting history is totally cut off from it. No thanks.
