It's notable how much consumer abuse is on the rise lately, with businesses cutting wages for their employees, increasing prices, and cutting services, to punish us for not buying enough useless crap.
In most cases, consumer abuse, like withdrawing 'unlimited' services, YouTube demanding users sign in, or Autodesk removing Fusion 360's personal use tier, net the abusive company little to no additional revenue. Their purpose is to exercise dominance over end users for not behaving the way the abuser feels entitled to.
