Oooh.. I'm glad they screwed over well-funded companies with multi-year contracts. Now at least they're going to get the shit sued out of them unlike when they go after regular users.

Sued for what? Have you seen the contracts these companies signed w/ Smyte?

If these companies signed an agreement with a vendor that allowed them to cut off service with 15 minutes notice, they deserved everything they got.

it seems curious that someone would sign (and pay for) a service provider contract that's largely pointless, but maybe there's a non-obvious loophole.
