how they handle their moral and legal obligations to 1,000+ people is up to them and i am sure those 1,000 people will be able to get as much assistance as they need to hold them over. 1,000 people keeping their jobs is statistically insignificant to the tens (hundreds?) of millions of compromised, faithful users. i dont think it would even be a question for them if the circumstances allowed for no other options. i believe their users would fully expect them to do this.
