So they are taking a page from YouTube where they out price the market until they are the market, and then will drastically raise prices because there’s no longer any competition?

This was me today. Had to push a small fix to our API server, which serves 10 apps. It didn’t go quite as planned; boy was Slack and Zabbix not happy. My phone got a good workout though from all of the notifications – which didn’t stop until about 5 minutes after the fix was fixed.
