I guess if you set up an account in their app before EOD tomorrow, you can be “grandfathered in”, but otherwise, they want to charge $2/month for remote control & monitoring of your Sous Vide.
They also say they’re also dropping “connectivity” from BT & BT/WiFi models: https://support.anovaculinary.com/hc/en-us/articles/27322197681165-The-Original-Anova-Precision-Cooker-Bluetooth-Bluetooth-WIFI-remote-connectivity-sunsetting
This will probably at least partially break the existing integration.
Very frustrating. I was hoping the bluetooth integration would be able to connect but it’s not looking like it.
WTF! Anova integration stopped working too now it seems?! The cloud strikes again …
No local API so now this ca not be used with Home Assistant without paid subscribtion.

It was always cloud so you never owned the Anova product you (and others) payed for. 
Simple enough to do the mandatory due diligence before gifting a manufacture money by opening the corresponding integrations page: 
The moment you read something with “cloud” you know that you don’t have any control/power over the device you payed for but instead full control (and essentially ownership) remains by the vendor.
The only two classes you want to have are starting with “local” anything else is gamble and mostly likely leads to entshitifcation 
Actually you can even have devices that work locally but if you don’t have full control over the device (like esphome based ones) the vendor might still ship and update and disable local control to lure you into some cloud subscription
