You're misunderstanding me, I never suggested that blog posts are legally binding and I clarified that point.
Just because somebody said it one time on a blog doesn't make it ironclad, of course. But as I said earlier, I think most of us can agree that what happened here with the 180 is pretty huge and unheard of. Microsoft introduced a policy and it was utterly destroyed, and the company had to publicly renounce all of these plans. I hold the 180 blog post up simply because it's the 'treaty that ended the war'. Consumers have it in writing that Microsoft acknowledges these policies are unpopular and you can safely go buy their product knowing you won't have to deal with those features. Maybe it doesn't stand up in court, but I think that it makes a surprise switcheroo that much more unthinkable.
just adding my own thoughts about the day 1 patch.
