The recent one that really kickstarted this would be Ubisoft's The Crew, which shutdown the servers a few months ago and is no longer playable at all, even the singleplayer story portions that have no need for multiplayer.
The comment above talks about a remote killswitch in particular, which suggests a portion of the game that doesn't reasonbly require online access is being disabled. Anything multiplayer understandably might not work forever. If The Crew had a singleplayer mode that got disabled (idk, never heard of this game) and was a one-time purchase with no refund, that's pretty scummy imo. Even then, if that were outlawed, that'd push them to put everything online instead of giving a local copy out at all.
Also, I know Steam updates cannot be disabled or reversed. GTA IV is a local game, but they released an "update" that deleted some soundtracks. Sure you can run Steam in offline mode, but not if you have any multiplayer games in your library.
