They did exactly that, except they changed the name of the original subscription to "classic" and upgraded everyone to the more expensive plan without asking.

This is actually illegal in some countries, and I hope they get fined for it.

I'm sure they will get fined for it, and the fine will be considerably less than the extra money they take in from people who don't notice...
