It's a right I deserved by flying hundred of thousands of miles on UA and giving them tens of thousands of dollars. I sent an email to UA and I urge everyone whether 1k, GS or any other level to do the same. Maybe, just maybe, they will listen to us and reverse this policy.
GS boarding isn't a "right" that you've earned; it's a privilege. United can offer and remove privileges at any time they choose. What is within your "rights" is your ability to change to an airline whose policies are more in line with what you believe to offer an appropriate value proposition.
Presumably you've made it known upstairs that you don't appreciate your privileges being revoked.
