Since MS forced the upgrade, you should get 2025 for free. That would probably be really easy to argue in court

Ah, but did you read the article?

MS didn’t force it, Heimdal auto-updated it for their customers based on the assumption that Microsoft would label the update properly instead of it being labeled as a regular security patch. Microsoft however made a mistake (on purpose or not? Who knows…) in labeling it.

Then it’s still on Microsoft for pushing that update through what is essentially a patch pipeline

It is, but they never forced anyone to take the update, so that might save their asses, or it might not
