Device was released May 21, 2019. So about five years of use, assuming someone bought one on release day.
Meh.
And? Why take active steps to stop it from working instead of just stopping technical support? Oh yeah, to get more money.

Your entire comment reads as a refute of OPs criticism and an excuse for Meta's actions. If you were agreeing with OPs criticism, you would typically use phrases like "only five years".
Or I would express that I'm on the fence between thinking the thing lasted long enough to be worth it, and thinking it wasn't.
