Any company that I have to give my username and password for a third party service (and especially one as important as icloud/imessage) ill take a hard pass.

What company are you talking about, and why are you saying that here? Beeper does not take or want your iCloud password.

EDIT: I’m wrong.

Beeper does want you to proxy your iCloud account through a Mac on their network for iMessage. You are logging into your iCloud account through their site. They are in effect using Mac minis in a farm to provide the service based on what I looked into (including self hosting it, but then you can’t use a beeper app, you need your own)
