What announcement are you reading? It states very clearly that this is the new pricing model, period.

Yes, existing customers have a 12-month grace period before they're impacted by a price change... but that clock just started ticking. There isn't an indefinite opt-out for this model change.

I'm looking at this one [0]. Specifically this item in the FAQ:

> Will GitHub force me to move to per-user pricing after 12 months?

> No. At this time we are not enforcing a timeline to move and if in the future we do decide to set a timeline we are committing to giving you at least 12 months.

"Will GitHub force me to move to per-user pricing after 12 months?

No. At this time we are not enforcing a timeline to move and if in the future we do decide to set a timeline we are committing to giving you at least 12 months."

So you have an indefinite period of time + 12 months, not a hard 12 months starting now.
