> Legislation should be put in place so that features not requiring a connection shall work offline. I'm afraid that in most cases that is just impossible, because the service is essentially all in the "cloud" by design. Perhaps the company should be forced to sustain service for a minimum warranty period like in the EU with their 2-years minimum legislation, which has cost repercussions onto the user. But really in most cases the problem is that it's so accepted to be sucked into subscription deals where the company can change their end of the deal at a moment's notice, and where you might just lose a lot of invested time and effort, let alone data and privacy, and essentially nothing of that can be properly compensated.
