Just based off this it really does look like they're going all out on forcing people to use the app. If the pricing structure changes wipe out a good portion of the 3rd party apps and you then can't even use a browser, who's really going to download a whole-ass app just to browse a website? Not to mention the data mining the app will be doing on your device.
Bad idea after bad idea from Reddit at the moment and all its going to do is push users to leave which at this point, most are happy to do.
