We don't know why Don Guhl has stopped re-flashing ECMs. Was he asked or told to by EPA? Or by his his lawyer? Was he fined? Had he been warned before? Did he see the writing on the wall and is changing his business to protect himself from possible fines and litigation?
We really just don't know until he's interviewed. Otherwise, it's all speculation.

"The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced in December new regulations designed to cut emissions from new passenger cars and light trucks. In the USA, unlike in Europe, where the main emitter of carbon dioxide is energy, transport is the largest source of greenhouse gases, and according to EPA data, it accounts for 29% of emissions...
The new regulations concern new cars 2023-06 "
