苹果确认阻止了 iMessage 第三方客户端 Beeper Mini

软餐获悉，苹果公司确认，该公司已经采取措施对抗 Beeper Mini，阻止了使用 “虚假登录凭据” 的第三方使用 iMessage 的技术。苹果称这些技术带来了 “重大的安全和隐私风险”，可能促进不受欢迎的消息、垃圾邮件和网络钓鱼消息的传播。苹果表示将来会继续推出类似的更新，以保护 iMessage 用户。Beeper Mini 是一款适用于 Android 的 iMessage 客户端，Android 用户可以通过该应用与使用 iMessage 的 iOS 用户进行聊天，而无需 Apple ID。但发布仅三天后，Beeper Mini 即停止工作。

Apple has confirmed that it has taken measures to combat Beeper Mini and prevent third parties from using “fake login credentials” to access iMessage. Apple states that these technologies pose “significant security and privacy risks” and may facilitate the spread of unwanted messages, spam, and phishing messages. Apple says they will continue to release similar updates in the future to protect iMessage users. Beeper Mini is an iMessage client for Android, allowing Android users to chat with iOS users who use iMessage without needing an Apple ID. However, just three days after its release, Beeper Mini stopped working.
