Disappointing but i don't see any foul play from google like the headline kind of insinuates. Anyway their product support is notoriously fickle so why would you expect anything more of them. TLDR a policy change at google made the authors hobby more difficult or impossible because he didn't make any contingencies. Specifically they deleted political ad history for the EU.

Where was the insinuation of foul play? I re-read the article with your criticism in mind, but it seems that they are basically just saying "this happened" and 'these are the negative consequences."

  The phrase "erased history" isn’t morally neutral. It carries a tone of judgment, even suggests censorship. If the author had wanted to appear neutral, they would have used "deleted" or "removed."

    Neutrality, and the appearance of neutrality, are different things.

    Ah! I read the article twice but hadn't considered the headline. I guess some editor wanted it sexed up a bit before it was published, the article itself is quite matter of fact.
