Violating the iMessage/iCloud user agreement can, yes, result in getting booted from the platform. It’s in the terms of service. It was a risk everyone took when using beeper. 
“How dare they access their own messages!”
I too like to champion a trillion dollar company over what's morally right!
ah, yes, pointing out a simple fact = "championing" / taking a moral stance
if i point out that it happens to be raining outside today, am i also "championing" the rain, claiming rain to be morally right?
lol
Stop. Fucking. Raindancing.
My shoes are WET. You did this.
How do you know it's against TOS or EULA to use your own credentials on your own Mac to send messages with your own apple ID in a secure way.
i know it's against the iMessage TOS to use the service in a way it's not intended to be used or in a way of which Apple disapproves, as beeper does.
Probably because they, unlike you, read the TOS and/or EULA
Did YOU read it? using beeper cloud is not against eula
No because I don't use Beeper or have a iPhone or care about this really I just wanted to make annoying remarks in the comments and see if anyone dislikes the name "Beeper" as much as I do
rude ._.
getting through everyday life must be a challenge for you.

No one gives a flying fuck about Apple's TOS.
tell that to those who got booted from iMessage
They don't give a shit either. Hence why they tried to bypass shitty iMessenger.
if it's so shitty, why are they so obsessed with using the platform?
the only thing they're trying to bypass is owning an apple device to get onto iMessage.
I'm calling it shitty. What are you even arguing? Forget it, I don't give a fuck.
if you don't give a fuck, why are you even here?
Tell that to the humancentipad! You clicked on agree TWICE!
