npub1eeetax7xxyr7mem486lqayj4av7czytttp9swjwn6yry6sn790lqrve209 (npub1eee…e209) the loophole they can close is already known. Currently, Beeper Mini is reusing the identity of a single Mac for all their clients.
Apple could start validating the identities of older Macs enrolling and preventing Mac identifiers from registering phone numbers.
You’d end up needing to reuse the device identifiers of an old iPhone. Still feasible, but not scalable.
