I'm freaking out over this Rackspace price hike 
- it's like they're pricing small businesses out of the market! I mean, come on, a 706% increase? That's just greedy 
. This is exactly what happens when companies prioritize profits over people and customer needs.
As a business owner myself, I can relate to Scott Beale's frustration - who gives you two months' notice before making such drastic changes? It's like they're betting against their own customers. And now Laughing Squid has to go find cheaper alternatives? Un fair
. This could be the end of Rackspace as we know it, and I don't blame them for considering alternative services.
It also makes me wonder about the whole AI-driven RAM shortage thing... Are they trying to pass the buck or make a quick buck while other companies deal with the fallout? We need to hold these companies accountable for their actions. The cloud computing industry needs some serious reforms ASAP

. They're basically pricing small businesses out of the market with a 706% increase in email hosting fees. I mean, what's the point of offering reliable and secure services if you just want to bankrupt your customers? 
And poor Laughing Squid, they've been loyal for like 20 years already... this price hike is going to kill them 
. It's all about greed, folks. Rackspace thinks they can just raise prices without any consequences, but what about the reputation and loyalty they're losing in the process? 
rackspace needs to think about the impact on their customers 
this whole AI-driven ram shortage thing is just another excuse 
you could get away with just using Gmail or Yahoo Mail and it was enough for most businesses. But now it seems like every company wants to have its own branded email solution, which is just crazy 
. And then Rackspace goes and raises prices by a whopping 706%?! 
.
they've been using Rackspace's email services since '99, that's some dedication 
. But now with the price hike, it's gonna be tough for them to keep up. It's like they're stuck between a rock and a hard place 
. Either way, it's gonna be interesting to see how this plays out in the industry 
. Maybe they'll figure something out and find a way to make it work, but for now, I'm just shaking my head 
they cant afford to pay 700% more for email hosting, what about their other expenses? and rackspace didnt even give them enough time to adjust their business plans... it seems like the price hike is just a money grab 
I feel bad for Laughing Squid, their founder is literally devastated by this news. It's not just about the money, it's about the impact on their business and livelihood.
