Let this be an example to any dev in this situation on how NOT to handle things. Everything about this transfer feels shady. The lack of response to direct questions after posting in a public forum is just all sorts of tone deaf. By making the public post, you're clearly aware there's concern. Then you post a murky and ambiguous response. You then do not follow up with concerns about the lack of information in the post. Just tell all of your users you don't care about them and you're about to unleash all sorts of nasty malware with a future update. At least they'll respect you for being honest.
