Do those customers include the US government?
Reader, they do.
From the OP
The China-backed intruders, referred to as Storm-0558, broke into Microsoft’s network and stole a digital skeleton key that allowed the hackers unfettered access to U.S. government emails stored in Microsoft’s cloud. According to a government-issued postmortem of the cyberattack, the State Department identified the intrusions because it paid for a higher-tier Microsoft license that granted access to security logs for its cloud products, which many other hacked U.S. government agencies did not have.
Following the China-backed hacks, Microsoft said it would start providing logs to its lower-paid cloud accounts from September 2023.
Oh great! Until this incident, security is considered a "premium feature". I really want off this "up sell to premium" ride.
government emails stored in Microsoft’s cloud
“up sell to premium” ride
You know Microsoft is giving you "free" logs, but it'll be a 12 hour retention or someshit unless you pay more.
Ain't no free in cloud.
