I do not think that this can be legal, if you have already agreed to terms.
Surely they can just say from now on, thing you have used for a year is not usable unless you promise not to sue us.
Surely that ship has sailed?
Pray they don’t alter them any further… or we’ll all end up riding a unicycle in a pink dress.
That sounds like fun though!
gender bending is played out; drab gray jumpsuits for everyone and no talking
the unicycles can stay as an approved method of personal transport
Where I live, the way contract law (at least in regards to employment) works is generally you can't alter terms (by imposing additional restrictions) after both parties have agreed to it unless there is some form of compensation provided for the restricted party in exchange for agreeing to those additional restrictions.
EULAs are a magical playground in USA. If you agreed in initial terms that they can change this document in future with or without notifying you, then they are within their rights to change it.
Urgh.
