"Lifetime" usually means lifetime (until deadpooling day) of the provider entity, not the lifetime of the user's body.
They will also feel bad to provide service to zombies if someone eats zombie drug "living" forever.
It's a word trick misleading user.
Sometime it doesn't even mean the lifetime of the company or lifetime of the service. Its arbitrary, up to them to define what it mean.
1password sell "lifetime" standalone licence back when they haven't pivoted into subscription model. That old licence is now practically useless since all their desktop app, mobile app and webapp is built to only accommodate subscription customer.
Roboform also did the same.
For vpn, ivacy "lifetime" is arbitrary 5 years only. They said to contact support once the account reaches 5 years to supposedly being given free extension for another 5 years. But its a 50-50 chance they might even reject the extend request.
"Lifetime" either aren't sustainable, or just simply greed taking over.
I think this is true maybe you can ask here on lowendtalk if anyone have an referral code for that. Because I'm no longer Hetzner customer.
Yesterday only renewed for 1 year.

Data backup

The back-in-time function has saved me when I was writing a term paper, too. I am using pCloud, though. It lets you rewind up to 30 days back in time and has like hourly saves iirc (or even 10 min intervals?!). For like 60€/yr you can get 365 days of rewind. I've been considering this quite often
Nope, those are only back-ups and encrypted. If my three houses would all burn up or fall in an earthquake and I would be still alive, I would need those backups of backups of backups, otherwise, no.
KS-1 :P
Sad but true. Many years ago I remember HP selling switches with "lifetime hardware warranty". When the switches got old and started to fail HP simply claimed "the lifetime of a switch is 5 years" and refused.
wow I just realized that 'another' might be possibly came from 'an other'
That's fucked. Netgear replaced some simple cheap switches without hassle and I'm sure hoping TP-LINK aren't assholes given how much shit I've bought of theirs...
I can understand if parts just aren't made anymore for a particular model, the vendor is just supposed to offer replacement that meets fit/form/function.
I had a 5 year warranty SSD fail from Crucial. They said they don't make it anymore and offered latest budget model. I said it didn't have a couple of features and then they responded with a better model and sent me that. So Crucial is on my good SSD books. Samsung are incompetent cunts.
