It's one thing to apologise, but there was no talk in the article about measures they're taking to prevent this happening again. I sincerely hope they're scrambling internally to put some safeguards in place. Yes, it's bad a minor version bump changed behaviour, but now they know this can happen, it's irresponsible not to mitigate this risk, e.g. by scrubbing the card details for expired subscriptions from Stripe.
