Here's what their faq say:

"Who’s eligible for the free version of Microsoft Teams?"

"Anyone with any corporate or consumer email address can sign up for Teams today.…"

Those elusive "consumer email" addresses.

I have no idea what a "consumer email address" is and the page does not explain it.

Consumer of what? If they meant to say "any email address" they really should rethink their language to be less dehumanizing.

Yeah but... I'm not putting my mom on Teams. Ever. She figured out Duo in 5 seconds because there's almost nothing to figure out.
Sure, but there is a difference between Teams having a corporate focus and Teams requiring an Office 365 subscription.
