“They won’t stop with AR-15’s, they will soon go after pro life companies, Christian companies, etc. etc.
This is also an indicator of the dangers of relying to the Cloud for critical business functions. When someone else owns a big piece of your operation, you are accepting big risks.”

Yep. Also, what does their current contract say about them controlling what products can be sold? I’ll bet they decided to virtue signal without consulting a lawyer first. When they attempt to “punish” a user, what will happen? How do they intend to enforce this policy? No matter whether potential users sell banned products, any potential user will think...Say, they could do this to me at any moment. I’m going with SAP.

I have no idea what their contracts look like, but these days most software transactions, especially Cloud based applications are subscriptions. Violate a terms of service agreement, even something put in place after you bought the service, they can cancel or suspend your subscription. They have all of the control. You - none. You can take them to court, but while the lawyers squabble, you can’t conduct business.
