You can get it on hundreds of other services if the people you talk to also use those other services.

yeah, that’s how they work

The problem is that they don’t because Apple does not allow you to use any other service with SMS fallback.

boo hoo. that doesn’t entitle you to use someone else’s private property however you like without their permission. it’s baffling how you don’t comprehend that.

I don’t personally care that beeper was doing its thing— I just don’t think anyone has a right to complain for getting banned from the service for violating the TOS. like… you knew what you were doing. it’s ridiculous to think that was ok or that you were entitled to do that. when I pirate a film or tv show, I don’t think I’m entitled to it.
