This review from 2011 shows how the Harmony Link works, and that it requires a MyHarmony.com account to set up a device, and to control it from an iPhone: https://www.engadget.com/2011/10/11/logitech-harmony-link-review/ https://www.engadget.com/2011/10/11/logitech-harmony-link-re...
You don't buy a product which solely depends upon a free online hosted service and then bitch after 7 years of using it for free. Yes, it would be nice if Logitech released its server-side code so people could host the service themselves, but that would require a firmware update too as MyHarmony.com is almost certainly hard-coded in the device.
Personally, I learned this lesson in 2002 when the Dreamcast's online services were terminated after only a year. It's too bad other people didn't seem to notice the parallels in 2011. But the suggestions of "class action lawsuit" is just stupid. You can't sue a corporation into running a free service for you that it never guaranteed in the first place.
