If you send an iMessage to an iPhone user, that has paid them, is there really much difference? This is more and more of a stretch.

- orf 3y agoThat’s a subset of the behaviour beeper is enabling, so yes it is different. And you’re not sending it - you’re asking Apple to send it for you, and using their resources in the process. And, as you haven’t paid them a dime, they can rightly say no. Just as you did when I asked to use your computer for crypto mining. Feel free to say yes to that, but understand that while you say no you’re also understanding why apple says no.
- the-rc 3y agoApple themselves say no for a totally different reason. I haven't seen anyone making this argument other than random posters on the Internet.
- orf 3y agoIf you understand why it’s not the same as receiving an email, and why an owner of a resource is not obliged to allow people to use that resource for free and for their profit, then why make this thread to begin with?
- TradingPlaces 3y agoThat’s a separate question. I’m just an Apple customer who doesn’t want to subsidize Android customers. That’s it. Explain to me why I should.
