OP is clickbaiting FUD again. Classic.
Can you explain?
As far as I can see OP took the original article headline verbatim; the article itself does describe the exact kind of bait-and-switch model as I've heard it used: company offers open standard edition, after a while switches it to basic / 'core' offering which locks e.g. Linux access behind a (steep) paywall.
