However, the fix requires you to have access to a Mac computer, or have a friend on Beeper with a Mac. > In a Reddit post, the company explained that when users connect iMessage on Beeper, it needs to send identification information called ‘registration data’ from a real Mac. Up until now, the company has been using its own fleet of Mac servers to provide this, but notes that “this has proven to be an easy target for Apple because thousands of Beeper users were using the same registration data.”
