    Literally everyone does this now and it’s so fucking frustrating.

    Vendor: Here’s our latest update, it’s mandatory, if you don’t implement it within 30 days your license will invalidate.

    IT Department: *Does the update* Great well now two core tools we need to do daily work aren’t there anymore.

    Vendor: Yeah, we removed them for your convenience, well being, user experience, and personal happiness.

    IT Department: But we need them otherwise the software is useless to us.

    Vendor: Oh in that case, our new product Premium Plus^^tm does those things but isn’t bundled with your tier of product so please cut us a check for the $5k a month difference and you’ll be good to go!

    And if I punched him, I’d be the one to go to jail.
