Probably because the "no go zone" is time based? Here in Germany, cities are experimenting with all sorts of policies to try and combat the various issues (drunk partygoers, people throwing escooters into rivers or into bushes, ...).

Unless the OP logged on within <1 minute of the zone switching designation, then this is still an unethical business practice. They have the code to make the scooter not run. They just didn't apply that code so that the sale can't go through.
