This has been discussed many times on this, and other forums. When you buy a ticket between point A and point B it's a contract. When you don't fulfill the terms of the contract, it's a breach of contract and the airline can, and will, cancel the remaining flights and value of the ticket. Also, when you simply don't show up for the first leg of a multi-flight itinerary, the airline has no idea whether you are planning to travel, or not. So, the airline feels they have the right to make those seats available to other passengers. Every airline, without exception, has the same policy. No show for a flight and you lose the remaining seats you were holding.
