LONG TIME NEST CUSTOMER - REALLY REALLY REALLY DISAPOINTED THAT API WAS KILLED BY GOOGLE

YES,  thank you for selling out and taking all the fun and enjoyment for a home automation hobbyist.    I have been futzing and tinkering for 7 years with NEST to use the API to get MY Own data.  ITS MINE.  And now you want to charge me $5 bucks for using the API to get MY DATA.   Lame.

I have been using the API to feed my OWN home dashboard for close to 5 years that I created on my own; that is only available to ME in MY HOME.    Your crappy google HOME APP is not smart enough to even conceptualize that a "Device" may actually be another application that just needs an oauth/api key.    

Oh well, time to de-install the NEST, and the 3 NEST protects and everything to do with what was ONCE a great product, a great company which provided us Home Automation DIY's something fun to do.   Now, its just Google gobbling up all the independent creativity of your (once) loyal customer.   A very sad day...
