In trouble with investors for tricking them?
Microslop and automigration to the copilot containing 365 sub rather than the default lower priced sub.
They automatically moved customers to a tier that cost them more money than it did for them previously?
Yes, at least in Europe they did. Went from 59€/y to 99€/y
When was that? I can’t find anything about it in a search.

The accountability here is to shareholders. And they don’t care about why, just quarterly profits and growth.
