If you look at their leadership. They have no one who knows how to code & understand's their core product at the helm. No one in their leadership team could use cypress themselves.
Decision like this come from the leadership team, and I don't think they have people with enough sense of what they're actually doing -- breaking trust with their end customers to understand this is terrible idea.
It smells a lot like what happened with Unity a few weeks ago. It's the same story. Leadership team weren't actually users of the product, they didn't understand that the company's key value was the trust they've built with the customers and they broke it.

Mosquitos are the closest thing to a predator that we have. They're by far the animal that kills the most humans (outside of other humans), and it's been that way for at least 10s of thousands of years.
We already know that billions of humans have genetic mutations that specifically are there to protect us from mosquitos. So I'm not surprised that mosquitos have specific adaptations made for us either.
It's to their detriment to do this. If this is on your Gmail, mark that email as spam. With enough people doing that, Comcast will either have to be more transparent about those emails or face the consequences of getting dinged by Gmail.
