Not really surprising for me if WD releases Firmwares primarly to lock Services or Features for certain Users instead of Bugfixing, its logicaly they don’t want Users to downgrade, because downgrading then means circumvent the Locks… I’m pretty sure WD will soon prevent downgrades because of this, if that happens i trow the Hub out of the Window for sure!

 

What about first fixing Bugs first instead of removing Services and introduce new Bugs?

Which services or features have been removed?

-edit-

Nevermind, found the answer earlier in the thread.  

The majority of users outside the US do not use VPNs to access services outside of their region.  The presence of unavailable services in the GUI makes NO sense for those users.  Making it optionally may have been nice but perhaps WD aren’t pandering to users who like breaking the Service providers’ ToS.
