    Do you not have a fundamental right to the goods you purchase?

      But you didn’t purchase them, you licensed them conditionally.

        Yeah technically, but that only stands until enough people challenge it

          In other words, no you do not currently have a fundamental right to that content.

            In other words, no not even close to what I said.

            Often these little legalese situations are illegal or legally undefined, and the only reason it holds is because no one has pushed against it

                Any terms of service agreement. When legally challenged, they usually do not hold up in court.

                Playstation makes you sign one that says you dont get to own the games you pay for and they can take them away whenever. A judge would likely tell them thats illegal, and they have to render services paid.

                  There is a reason the “you behave like an ass, you lose access” part is not usually the one anyone challenges in court.

                    I think you can google specific lawsuits like a big boy on your own, no?
