From The Verge, Apple has seemingly found a way to block Android’s new iMessage app

Reached for comment, Beeper CEO Eric Migicovsky did not deny that Apple has successfully blocked Beeper Mini. “If it’s Apple, then I think the biggest question is… if Apple truly cares about the privacy and security of their own iPhone users, why would they stop a service that enables their own users to now send encrypted messages to Android users, …"

Yeah, if Apple cared about security, why did they block a company whose entire business model hinged on faking iDevice authenticity? /s

Must say though, it was an impressive feat made possible by a sixteen year old who reverse engineered Apple’s messaging system.

Anyway, I posted a quick write up the other day about receiving my first “blue bubble” scam message.
