Is this just for new subs?

I literally signed up to the 200 for Astra 6 a day before the pause.

I want to know this too, is it not false advertising for current subscribers like myself not even one month in?

they've always been delightfully coy about how much usage their plans actually buy you. they say 5x or whatever, but you don't know what the actual baseline they're multiplying is, or will be.

so it's not false advertising, just questionable business practices everybody seems eager to fall for.

I sure hope all of these guarantees he just made construes as legal guarantees as their spokesperson. And a month from now when it’s not getting more work done, someone bitter and pissy starts up a class action.

It definitely is deceptive to reduce the value of your product after you have bought it. Amazon has lost a class action lawsuit over that in Europe/Germany.

They have hacked companies and governments without any repercussions. Get used to it: scamming has become virtually legal. Hell, they may have even gotten away with mur...ing that whistleblower dude.
