      … second paragraph of the article:

      In addition to the basic plans getting Copilot rolled in, there are now additional “Basic,” “Personal Classic,” and “Family Classic” tiers without Copilot and “other advanced features” added for users who do not use AI in their workflows

      Hey guys, let’s stop ending prices in .99 in our social interactions.

      It’s a relic that only exists to take advantage of people’s psychology. We shouldn’t be doing the dirty work for corporations.

      Here, let me help:

      why not just do:

      microsoft 365: $7

      microsoft 365 + copilot: $10

      Don’t type more so you can help businesses fool people into thinking prices are lower than they actually are.

      They did exactly that, except they changed the name of the original subscription to “classic” and upgraded everyone to the more expensive plan without asking.

      This is actually illegal in some countries, and I hope they get fined for it.

        I’m sure they will get fined for it, and the fine will be considerably less than the extra money they take in from people who don’t notice…
