Hi Peter
Yup it became obvious in the discussions. I'm also waiting to see how this turns out but I suspect legally in the EULA for Office 2016, they have the power to do this and by using the product we have accepted the conditions.
You'd be surprised how many products actually can do this to you and more.

Good luck Peter!
Cheers
