So instead of admitting to it and try to do some damage control its better to just stay silent? At least post something official about this. I am not hit by this and yet I dont feel like I want to play much right now. :/ I also fear that if they go through with this they might try to do something like that in the future to other regions too. As a European customer I already feel like a second rate customer, so I would not be surprised if anything like that happens too.

They did admit it was intentional somewhere in this thread.

I think it was a PR manager or someone else who doesn't know anything about inner workings of company. So they may as well have completely another stance on it because it's sure can't be just "making prices fair". Till then we can wait, but how long are they gonna get hit with bad reviews and losing trust of people because of silence?

He wouldn't have the authority to come out and say something like that without asking first regardless. No one representing the company would without consequences at least.

It's not out the realm of possibility that they might change their stance, but SE's word is out regardless.
