R(etroactively) A(mended) P(urchase) E(xperience)

A retroactively amended purchase experience is when a company changes the terms of the sale, after the sale. Companies can do this nowadays because most of us use cloud software, otherwise known as SaaS, Software as a Service. Since we have to connect to someone else's computer to USE our software, they have the ability to deny us access to this software without accepting new terms, that they can change on us at any given time. Since consumer protection in the United States is a joke, they face no consequences for doing so.

An example of this can be found with Adobe, when they changed the terms of the sale to include terms allowing them to look through your content.

Or when Adobe took software you paid for, and disallowed you from activating it, perpetual licenses are not perpetual licenses as long as you must connect to someone else's computer to use what you paid for.

I really liked my $400 baby monitor, but now I have to pay extra for features it came with because the company did a R(etroactively) A(mended) P(urchase) E(xperience)

A Mending Book is a rather useful item in Minecraft. Using said enchantment on a tool or weapon will make the tool/weapon automatically be repaired by a specific incremental amount when picking up Experience Points.
Alternatively: Something Grian will never get.
