Discontinuation of Old Cloud API and Upgrade to New API

Hello! I just updated to `v10.2.2`, and upon restarting the child bridge I received this email sent to my Meross account's email address. 

I'm wondering if this is something you are aware of and/or something I should be concerned with.

If they are potentially going to block 3rd party platforms, I'm wondering if I can keeping using the plug-in by forcing local and not updating the firmware on the openers (they are currently up to date).

thanks!
