they generally did disclose them. I think what you're arguing is that they shouldn't be allowed to ever change the terms, even with significant warning. One should view it as a monthly (even for those that paid yearly) recurring contract. Just like you can opt out of the contract at the end of each contract term, so can google (they just have to define what that means for those that got a discount by paying a year up front). Every month, the contract can change and the users can say its no longer valuable to them. Its not fundamentally different than those who "buy" licensed DRM content in the cloud (which can go away). We like to say its not buying, you're just "long term" renting. Guess what, that's exactly what this is, except that's the entire point here, to not buy and simply rent, so there should be no confusion.
