Microsoft to separate Teams and Office globally amid antitrust scrutiny

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
They’ll still be rolled up in an E3 license so corporations won’t really notice the difference
Would you happen to have a source that you could link on that please? I've been trying to see if it affects us since I read the Ars Technica story this morning. We have been getting Teams historically with the Office 365 E3 license that comes with our Action Pack sub.
Oh, it wasn’t a verified response, just one of those “well this is most likely how Microsoft will deal with it” things.
I suspect you're correct, but I'd like to see it in black and white. I wear a number of hats and one of them makes me answerable to questions like "Why has my Teams stopped working?"
If this works like how they did it here in Europe, where this change happened last year, then this won't affect existing tenants, other than also getting a standalone teams sku available.
On new tenants created after the change took effect however, there will be no sku with teams bundled available, only the standalone teams sku and teams less E3/E5 skus.
That makes sense. Thank you for replying. 👍
