I assumed bait and switch now encompassed this marketing tactic. If you know the exact term this tactic is called please let me know. > The consumer can choose to stay or leave. . It's difficult to leave, but it's the same kind of deal when your apartment's lease is not renewed. I can't really see this as anti-consumer Your argument is simply: consumers deal with something like this for an unrelated industry so it is not anti-consumer. That is not a good argument. edit: also, renting is a very poor example. There are laws that govern how much rent can be raised that vary based on jurisdiction. If renting wasn't anti-consumer why would such laws exist? No such laws against gouging against for data storage which undermines your argument.
