This is pretty insane, I think it's about time that tech companies start to honour longer-term contracts and give more notice, even on their hobbyist service offerings.
I mean, imagine a local grocery store who's rent would go up by 28x, 1 month notice. Or his procurement costs? That means literal bankruptcy or closing down his shop, virtually overnight. That's just not okay, not after years and years of service. You need to honour contracts for at least a year at a time and give notice. You can give two months notice on a 5% price hike, not a 3000% one.
Few other businesses operate in this manner, and those that do we tend to call shady, exploitative, inconsiderate etc.
- fireattack 8y ago> honour longer-term contracts Do they really have such contracts to begin with?
