As far as I am concerned, this is a `bait and switch` tactic. It is unethical. And it is a surefire way to shoot oneself in the corporate foot and destroy customer trust.

Nobody who values security enough to use a password manager would leave their passwords at the mercy of the next corporate turnabout, when said corporation is evidently untrustworthy.

This is the same lizard-brain self-interest unleavened by any shred of higher brain functions that people like Shkreli exhibit: `the suckers have switching costs so let's jack up the price obscenely while reducing the actual customer benefits.` Some people should be kept away from MBA programs.
