I'm also curious about Beeper's plan re: potential response/pushback from Apple and the status of (likely broken?) E2E in iMessage.

If I backup my WhatsApp messages in plaintext or screenshot my iMessage it’s still E2E. Once the message is delivered all bets are off.

Forwarding all my messages to some 3rd party service doesn’t break E2E anymore then forwarding them to my friends.
