A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's entirely legal, yes. As people have been saying for years, you don't own the games, you own a license to them.

Is it legal to revoke the purchased license just because I don't use it in a while?

It's legal to end a license at your own arbitrary discretion if that's under the license terms (it is)
