What about cloud based SAAS?

Company out of funds. Has to pull back offerings. Closes that software.

This law would force them to somehow keep it operating.

That would be like telling the local bakery he has to keep baking pies each morning, even though he's gone broke.

If there's a one time cost, it's a buy. But my business services, I pay monthly. That's a subscription.
