Was wondering if this should be posted in uplifting news or here, but I think it is a bit naive for me to think that they will change their pricing policy anyway, just rinse and repeat while hoarding record profits.

Not uplifting. CEOs are literally there to be pushed out whenever things hit the fan - just so the company is seen to be doing something. Nothing will change. Profits will stay. The rich will keep getting richer. Move along, plebs.
