Apple’s iMessage workaround arrives too late to avoid a lawsuit

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>
Apple finally offered an easy solution this week to people who wanted a way out of iMessage
    purgatory after switching from iPhone to Android. But that workaround won’t help the company in an ongoing legal dispute: U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh
    decided Monday that Apple must respond to a class-action suit about the iMessage foul-up in a California court.</p><p>
Adrienne Moore, a former iPhone 4 owner who then switched to a Samsung Galaxy S5, claims that Apple interfered with her Verizon Wireless contract by
    failing to let her know that texts sent as iMessages from her contacts using iPhones wouldn’t be delivered to her new Android device. Koh is allowing the
    suit to proceed so Moore can try to prove that Apple violated a California law against unfair competition by holding the messages hostage.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2847014/apples-imessage-workaround-arrives-too-late-to-avoid-a-lawsuit.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
