Comment on A VPN Company Canceled All Lifetime Subscriptions, Claiming It Didn’t Know About Them
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 3 weeks agoWithout being able to offer any idea of a solution though, saying that means nothing. The company either gets shut down and those users get fucked and have no VPN, or the company stays alive and the users have no VPN but have the option to get one again.
The point is there’s no real way the lifetime licenses get honoured.

Just honor them and take the loss. The new owners did a bad deal. In many countries it would be highly illegal to cancel these contracts while continuing the business. Either liquidate the company or honor the deals. Fuck capitalism.

So you’d rather they just close the company down, so then no one can use their VPN. Big brain move.

The people operating the company do not deserve to run it. Maybe they should declare bankruptcy and let somebody who will honor the contracts buy it.
Allowing this kind of anti-consumer behaviour just allows them to juggle the company around to get out of contracts.

OK so you’re against the sale of the company in the first place? That’s a different story.
