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?
Very good read! love detailed explanations on the "bad" original code and steps taken toward improving it. a lot of it comes down to personal preference and the author did a good job at respecting what might have been an intentional design decision with their optimizations by making it all configurable
it wasn't even a cursor specific extension it was a vscode one. completely misleading
