The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

          A more honest analogy for the situation was that there are very few incidents of circuses doing that and now people demand it’s morally justified to get free entrance to every circus, concert, fair, museum, …

      It’s a thousand times better than this empty garbage. How does this have any upvotes?
