Even the CEO of Beeper said there was no way Apple could take them down without interrupting service for iPhone users.
I guess he was wrong!
Or, maybe he knew he was bluffing a little (I doubt he fully believed they couldn't do this).
Like ad blocking, this looks like a cat/mouse game, and this dev looks like he really understands what Apple does. So it should be an interesting thing to watch.
Probably not a good idea to underestimate a multiple trillion dollar company
