Which makes me wonder if they are going to use MSPs at all? Maybe they want to transition to only using individuals in an Uber type scenario.

Hard to say! They are so dumb and at the same time, so devious that anything is possible.

When I heard Matterport hired him I even mentioned here on the forum my fears he could easily do the same to Matterport. And he freaking did it again starting with really unreasonable new plans that did not seem to be designed for MSPs to grow. Now another hit and again the most affected are MSPs. BTW, his method to grow revenue are ridiculous. He compensates of what he is loosing with his methods by taking a cut from things they should not even touch. For eBay he grew it by applying ebay fees to postage cost and making combined postage adjustments almost impossible. The thing eBay did not even try to do before they hired him. And nobody won because now a consumer has to cover that fee as sellers just have to pay what cost them to post not less 10-12%.

	They already did long ...long time ago. In fact, they have a in house sales team, I was hired by Matterport itself a few times, terrible experience tho. The whole MSP was dead from the time they hire RJ Pittman as Chief Executive Officer in 2018.
