When a product like this just dies overnight, there should be a law stating that the source code needs to be made public. No ifs ands or buts. If you don't want to release the source code, then don't release the product or keep a modicum of support available. To brick products is unconscionable.
Good luck getting it fron the country that ruled national injuctions are onerous but the ftc can be blocked from requiring click to cancel. You're going to have your devices bricked and you're going to have to live with it.
I think there needs to be a mechanism in place. When you release a product, you should be required to put the source code in escrow, so it can be released at EoL.
