The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.
Further to that, paying for a product then the seller taking that product away from you without refunding your payment is stealing.
Don’t forget adjusting for inflation and real money being given back not some shitty gift card
YES! This IS stealing!

Which is par for the course with Google and not at all a surprise, but sheesh.
