No, while they've been deceptive with how the "annual, billed monthly" plans were advertised — and previously without clear disclosure of the cancellation fee of 50% of the remaining annual commitment — they've always had monthly plans. It's just that the true monthly plans were 3x to 4x the price of the "annual, billed monthly" plans, which was ridiculous and intended to discourage people from going for those plans. I've been an Adobe CC subscriber for more than a decade. The only thing that keeps me with them is that Photoshop has no real alternative that's equally powerful. Hate the company but let's get our facts right.
