You're describing DRM in another form and shape.
DRM is never about consumer rights, it's about taking them away, it's about making sure that the consumer never gets to own a piece of digital media and is always dependent on some online service so it can be revoked and resold. Because it's ok when Disney sells you the same movie 5 times but not if you resell it once, right? 🙄
DRM-free media (such as GOG games) do much more to guarantee continuous ownership than NFT could ever do.
