<p>Thanks, undocumented? Meanwhile reddit’s answer:<p>> In what universe if you stop paying for a service you can still access the resources of that service? Basic common knowledge.<p>But on MacRumors:<p><pre><code>  “Update: So I let my iCloud+ account expire.

  When this happens you lose access to managing ALL your Hide My Email emails. Yet you can't even see what the Hide My Email addresses are any longer.

  But, people can still send emails to those emails. However, you apparently cannot reply to the emails with the Hide My Email address.

  This is troubling...”

<p>> If the guardrails can be bypassed at, say 50x token cost […], then it's still pretty effective as a safeguard, because at that cost you might as well hire humans instead.<p>If humans have to be hired at inflated rates because you’re e.g. the North Korean government, hopefully 50x token costs don’t look competitive.</p>

<p>You sound awesome. Just venting? (b/c curious if friends can fill your heart abundantly, & we know we're never too old to make new friends!)<p>> dreading<p>Even avoiding political headlines (OK, at least articles), plenty of cause for dread, so I keep re-focusing to avoid despair. Easier said than done innit!<p>Can't kill my hope for the future though. One day, all the good stuff shall prevail (morality, intelligence, love & kindness)... maybe not permanently, but a Star Trek future is there somewhere (& they had their troubles but it wouldn't be a dreadful situation overall). Sharing with you in case it's even slightly contagious!</p>

<p>I’ve never heard of this before. Anyone know if it’s uncommon?<p>Familiar with creditors getting divvied in bankruptcies, but not refunds to investors… oh it’s because there’s never any money left when things wind down. (We hear of retail stores where employees discover closures posted on shop doors when reporting to work.)</p>
