The important bit here is "free". While it wasn't a great move, nothing was paid for so there's no contract. Also I'm not sure it was ever called "lifetime" (I can't find that), it looks like it was just "grandfathering" old users in to a free plan. I think that's a materially different situation to selling lifetime licences and then reneging on that.
