An if it does who cares???  I pay subscriptions monthly for Netflix, Youtube, and many other apps on my phone.  None of these that are as important as my sim flying hobby.  Its the cost of enjoyment.

My original investment in Falcon 4 out of the schlock bin in 1998: $8. When GOG released the Falcon bundle, I laid out another whopping $7 for it, because the GOG installer actually worked on modern Windows, and the original installer didn't.  Total investment cumulative of the original purchase and GOG purchase: $15.  Number of years of enjoyment of Falcon 4: 25 years. I'm fine with my $0.60/year investment so far.  No Swiss bankers were harmed in the financing.

Sucks to be you!  Lol.  Either way again this is just pointless speculation at this point and worrying doesn’t do anyone any good.  RELAX!!!!
