Yes, that would obviously be the logic behind it.
What I'm not too happy about personally is that you have to go
through your ISP provider. I'm going to be staying at University
residence pretty soon and using their WIFI, so as far as I can
see Skweezer now not only costs, it's also tricky to access on an
individual basis. Also - I don't know if it was just me or not
but I didn't notice aoything on their website "warning" us about
it. Sure, their privacy policy most likely says they're entitlx
to change whatever they want without warning us, but out of
courtesy I think that would have been nice none the less. I have
a lot of favourites channeled through skweezer which all need
fixing now.

Subject: [BNU] Re: Skweezer And The Apex
I want to point out one thing: why should bn users get special
treatment? If the service is valuable to you, why not follow the
instructions laid out in the message from Skweezer, instead of
asking them to make exceptions just because you use their
service? Basically, you are saying that you wish to continue to
use something for free because it is useful, yet that very
popularity is likely why they needed to monetize the service in
the first place. Am I missing something here? I don't wish to
offend anyone, I just fail to see the logic of asking for a now
paid service to remain free because you use that service.

Dear BrailleNote Users,
This morning I received a message about skweezer no long being
free for us to use. I sent them an email and have not yet
received a response. I think more people from this list should
email them. Tell them how valuable it is to blind users. I use
Skweezer to access my gmail account. Please respond as soon as
possible.
