Then they should state that in the Terms of Use clause in which they grant themselves permission to terminate if the “Account has been inactive for more than six months.” (Or better yet, remove the clause entirely.)
A note sent to a journalist saying that they won’t enforce that clause as written does not make it okay.
They are gonna reserve the right to delete any account they want no matter what. I bet it’s in the terms of service of basically all the market places. There are a million reasons why they might want to delete an account. What if an account is used for exploiting Unisoft services. For ddos attacks. Extreme hate speech. Even in purchased games, there is clauses that make clear that they can delete your account. After all how are you supposed to ban hackers?
I’m not saying it’s right that they can do that. I think there should be regulations about what rights the consumer has and what rights the marketplace has, but lacking that, it’s common sense on the companies part to promise nothing and reserve rights to everything.

And we should reject that, and hold them accountable for bad behavior.
