You should make noise because, unless you signed some particular contract, the code is your intellectual property and it's illegal to just take it away from you.

I bought Stadia and read the contract, I was under no illusion that I could export save files or progress to other platforms. You don't own the games you play, if you cared you'd buy from GoG.
