It’s pretty cool how things we purchase can just lose functionality at the drop of a hat.

i'm sorry but if you were enough of a rube to sign up for a $2/mo subscription for that then this might be darwinistic capitalism
A lot of people really have a hard time parsing what they’re buying with digital products and I think it’s unfair to expect them to compete with international mega corporations that love to surprise folks with gated featured/subscriptions as you go “caveat emptor.”
Clearly not enough people were. I'm taking this as a W for the common man
