Nancy's back, so I'm leaving and taking my money with me

Who is Nancy?  More on that later...

I've decided to quit this community once and for all—this time for reals.  I did a while ago because of issues with the "Jobs" section.  I wasn't a very high rep user, but I contributed a lot of time to the Jobs section, finding over 150 bugs (mainly on Jobs).  I didn't get paid for this, but I did get a thank you from Joel himself.  I have been a member of this community for over ten years, and what I once loved is not something I believe in at all anymore. I will continue to watch, but I won't contribute via time or money (more on the $$$ later...). 
So who is Nancy? My previous job, which I had worked at for over 18 years, was my first "real job" I picked up at the end of college.  I loved it, and the company was doing pretty good.  We did have ups and downs because we were in the automotive / manufacturing sector (but that was pretty normal).  Everything in the company was sound until Nancy arrived.  
Nancy was the new HR director, and she implemented policies that she herself did not follow.  The old, "do as I say. not as I do" policy.  Enforcing obnoxious rules (OT, punching in and out, start / end times, etc.) while she came in at 10 AM and left by 2 PM each day.  If you had an issue and talked to her about it, she was busy doing her nails or was on her phone texting.  In any event, we went from over 400 employees to 200 within her first year, and then from 200 employees to under 100 employees before she herself escaped.
During that time (the 200 to 100 employees), I myself decided to pick up and leave after 18 years of work (I had no plans to leave; unlike a lot of people in the industry, I do not like job hopping).  Nancy ruined our community: we lost good engineers, we lost good programmers, we lost trust, and, finally, many of us lost patience.  What was left were folks holding on for dear life, bless their hearts (many of the folks left over were either getting close to retirement or engineers who just did not want to change).
Here was a workplace people once loved to be at, which ended up being a ghost town. Our shares tanked:

I quit that job forgetting to take advantage of my flexible health savings account (FSA).  I had over $600 in that account, yet forgot to at least use it on eligible items such as Band-Aids, sun screen, etc.  When I called Nancy a couple of weeks after I had left, stating I had forgotten to use my FSA account money, she mentioned that because I left the company it was terminated and the money went back into the company's account.  I was seriously pissed...
I will not let that happen to me again...and so I am leaving this community and taking my money with me.  A new Nancy has arrived, and the money (it's not a lot, but every penny counts) that I spend on my team's subscription to teams will not be renewed any longer.  
I will not pay for a service backed by people I no longer can trust.  I know, I know..."You're just one customer, Jon...".  You're right; I am one customer, but one customer who used to compliment and refer other companies to use great products.  In fact, at my old place I implemented SO for Teams, and at my new place the first thing I implemented was SO for Teams.  
No more, I tell you, because I'm leaving you, Nancy, and I am taking my money with me.
Thanks for the good times and the bad times.

So I'm going to answer this even though I already commented to this effect, since the comment thread seems to be full of hand wringing constructive debate...
Let's not dilute what you've done here.  You've decided to vote with your wallet as opposed to with your opinion on Meta.  This is something that can't be ignored and won't go unnoticed.
