The issue you’ll run into is that the data runs through their servers, and you ages to let them kill it off. Should that be legal? I honestly don’t know. But they shouldn’t force you to use their servers to begin with, which would make the entire issue moot.

Having someone use a remote kill command for an item you bought for reasons other than imminent threats to safety ought to be illegal. This shouldn’t be treated differently from a car salesman bricking your windshield after you drive off the lot.

In germany there’s the “Computer sabotage” crime.

Is it still sabotage if the only thing they have sold is a license to use their product not the product itself. That is still their property.

Hopefully, such terms would violate the above law andnoyt hold up against it.
