Visicom is the new owner, right? So that's a new policy, as in not the one he agreed to when he signed up for a lifetime license.

No, Visicom is the old owner, as per the quote in the original post:

“ManyCam is now under new ownership. […] Visicom Media stands by the Lifetime customers and will continue to support them by arranging with the new owner for a total of two years of free subscription."

I misread. But then I got all these upvotes for nothing.

Yeah, it's awkwardly worded. I must have read the same sentence 3 times before I realised what it was saying. Looking at the latest version of the TOS, the new company is operating under the name "ManyCam ULC"
