This really is something they should be sued over. Their support cycle is part of the license contract that went with the sale of the OS. Their refusal to follow through is a breach of contract.

I agree whole-heartedly. But I don't expect it to happen. Authorities literally turned a blind eye to all of Microsoft's shady tactics to spread Windows 10, so I'm pretty sure they will be more than happy to overlook something like this as well.
