It most definitely is, I just want to have different words for hardware that is made obsolete. This isn't even planned obsolescence IMO, this is something else. A function that seemingly has nothing to do with a live service (in similar products) is getting taken out and exchanged for something most people (presumably) don't want. This is a scam and people should be refunded. Also Amazon should be punished severely for something like this.

They are taking functionality away and hiding it behind a paywall. This is pretty despicable behavior. They should get an award for it. Any consumer road shows that have a Dunce Award?
