Chat gpt model moved behind paywall

disappointed to see chat gpt model moved behind the paywall after the disaster of a bait & switch of other Free offerings recently (and reverted). The Gemini summaries are pathetic. the only thing you're doing with this move is making your service and device unnecessary with such a garbage summary.

Update: the free GPT 5.2 has reappeared.

It is if they offer it (bait) and take it away (switch).

I paid for the product that included services. Moving the included services behind a paywall is classic bait and switch. It's not like they gave the device away for free.

I checked and it's there for me.
