[[Peloton]], a wellness technology company, faced widespread criticism after removing the "Just Run" feature from its Tread and Tread+ treadmills, making it accessible only through a paid subscription. This change, implemented under the guise of safety concerns, sparked debate over consumer rights and digital locks. The incident highlights broader issues surrounding corporate control over purchased products and the use of safety measures as a justification for subscription models. This issue has since been resolved, with Peloton restoring the feature in August 2021 following public backlash. | [[Peloton]], a wellness technology company, faced widespread criticism after removing the "Just Run" feature from its Tread and Tread+ treadmills, making it accessible only through a paid subscription.
