Office 365 Family is going from 6tb (1tb per user) to 2tb shared total.
Now I have to coordinate with my family and discuss the use. How is this even privat? Now I will know how much everyone uses and it is a big cut from previous total. Why this cut?

Why is Microsoft making this change?
The goal is to provide a more flexible experience. Shared storage helps ensure that one person doesn't run out of space while other members have unused storage available.
It's absolutely disgusting selling this as an flexibility upgrade. Just call it was it is. Going from a total of 6 TB to 2 TB is a 66% cut is storage space included in the subscription.
