New York
What protections exist today
New York has no digital-goods-specific consumer law. Its general consumer protections are among the strongest in the country: General Business Law §349 (deceptive acts and practices) and §350 (false advertising) reach deceptive conduct in consumer transactions, require no proof of intent, and carry a private right of action with statutory and (for willful violations) treble damages. A deceptive "buy"/"own" label on a revocable digital license could in principle be challenged under §349/§350, though this has not been tested for digital goods.
What's missing
No statute requires sellers to disclose that a digital "purchase" is a revocable license, no refund is mandated when access is revoked, and there is no offline-copy or end-of-life requirement. Protection depends entirely on general UDAP enforcement, which has not been applied to digital-ownership labeling.
