Weird, no statement or anything that I can find, just a banner at the top of the page. As well, they're shutting off service in less than a month during a time in the year when at least many western countries have limited staff/availability due to holidays. While I understand that once they decide they will no longer be operating, they don't have a legitimate business reason to help (former) customers ease through the transition, it really seems like they went out of their way to be as customer-hostile as they could.

EDIT: Looks like an email went out (copied in a comment below) and that they are not shutting down as an organization, just this product. Even more curious as to why they'd offer such a short migration window to former customers. I would, especially in an organization, be truly hesitant to rely on any of their other technologies if this is the pattern being set.
