No, I do not think they do. If a buy a car a run somebody over on purpose, the manufacturer has no right to come take my car away. Even if it were to be written in a contract.

If you tell the car dealership that your plan is to run someone over with the car you are buying, they 100% have the right to refuse selling the car to you.

If you tell a gun dealer you're going to kill someone when you walk out of the shop, they have a right and an obligation to refuse the sale.

Please feel free to tell me how these analogies are incorrect.

One of the many reasons every company has tried to shift their business model to the latter: greater control over users.

The GGP did not make that distinction, they made a statement about all companies and all products.

It's different with services. If you close a mobile phone contract and use it for spamming, the supplier can cancel your contract.
