What should also be the next fine Google receives should be for taking down apps without informing the customer due to GDPR purging and forced API updates and software updates making apps that have been purchased as a one-time purchase into a then rented product without first having let the customer agree to it via the necissary rental agreement form. It's fraud plain and simply fraud and what proves so is they even secretly took down the app purchase history once apps had been pulled from the store.
This was so that you couldn't put a claim through and they still continue on with the barrage of attacks on one-time purchases wiping them out of your purchase history and existance in favour of pumping up the use case scenario for their abismal Google Play Pass subscription platform because if their are no one-time purchase apps and games you have to go Play Pass instead and get all those IAP's included instead what Candy Crush and that not high end games we did have then? This is one of the biggest if not the biggest online digital marketplace scam of all time, yet not a peep by any governing bodies and or ombudsman here?
They should be forcing Google to reimburse every missing app and game from Play Store accounts worldwide. It can actually be proven by back statements from a bank if you circle on a every purchase made to google compare that with your apps list if it's not in any history in my purchases on Play Store but it's on the bank statement then that's theft either and or or fraud one or the other or both really because you deliberately wiped off the purchased items history so you hid the fact for any later claiming it back to be made impossible via the store, they actually refuse to refund these apps and games when confronted in live chat and cut the conversation every time stating this is unproductive...? No guys it's theft either and or fraud actually it's quite productive making claims via your lawyers isn't it either and or reporting it which every person should. Without a picture from your purchase history for each missing item their answer is on your no refund blaintantly disregarding that they are breaking actual the law from a criminal standpoint not just a civil one.
It proves Google intentionally enacted a crime (fraud) and enacted a cover up on top.
I will state this is my personal view the law may see it differently although unlikely. Just incase Google dislike this post and try to extort me as a person and not a account holder this time lol.
