The headline sounded good but the article lists a lot of negatives too. They're removing discounts for veterans/first responders, they recently laid off 10% of staff, and their price now matches Amazon and Apple. So don't mistake this for good intention; this is just a business' survival instincts taking over.

That's a negative?

A business made a business decision, yes. Your point?
