Isn't this a failure by the company to recognize free trial abuse sooner? and to not close the loophole immediately seems like even more of a weak behavior. Calling them out but not taking decisive action beyond claiming that they are acting immorally ultimately accomplishes nothing. Businesses are not beholden to your ideas about what is nice and fair, but whatever the rules and constraints are to your system. if you keep a practice like this that allows free trial abuse forever, why would they spend money?

Based on what I read, it sounds like they believe in their model and aren’t looking to come down on everyone because of one bad actor.

I can understand that.

Obstacles to free trials and such often are more hassle than their worth and a determined person can get around them anyway.
