    Makes a free plugin, gets it used on hundreds of thousands of sites that rely on its functionality… then removes all the features you’re using and holds you to ransom! Pay for my “extensions” that you already had for free, or your site won’t work!

    Yes! This was my nefarious plan, 9 years in the making!

    Or, you could simply not update.

    Honestly don’t care any more. I removed your plugin, I have no faith or trust in you despite having made donations to you in the past. Hopefully someone will use your GNU code to release a new version and we can all migrate to that. You’ll never get anything from me!

    You cared enough to leave a 1 star review.

    I care for other users who I want to warn about you and your business practises! I don’t care what happens to this plugin.
