This feels... reasonable? You're in their shop (Opus 4.5) and they can kick you out without cause.

But Claude Code (the app) will work with a self-hosted open source model and a compatible gateway. I'd just move to doing that.

Sure, but it also guarantees that people will think twice about buying their service. Support should have reached out and informed them about whatever they did wrong, but I can't say that I'm surprised that an AI company wouldn't have an real support.

I'd agree with you that if you rely on an LLM to do your work, you better be running that thing yourself.

Not sure what your point is. They have the right to kick OP out. OP has the right to post about it. We have a right to make decisions on what service to use based on posts like these.

Pointing out whether someone can do something is the lowest form of discourse, as it's usually just tautological. "The shop owner decides who can be in the shop because they own it."

I think there's an xkcd alt text about that: https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1357:_Free_Speech

"I can't remember where I heard this, but someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you're saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it's not literally illegal to express."
