The real headline:

Over 170,000 Nonprofits Lost All Their Data. Is Microsoft to Blame?

Not sure if Slate is A/B testing or if OP clickbait-ified the post title

    Checked the source code, looks like we're dealing with three different titles here:

    <title>Microsoft made a quiet change to a popular software grant. Small nonprofits lost everything.</title>

<meta property="og:title" content="The Quiet Decision Microsoft Made That Devastated Thousands of Nonprofits" />

<h1 itemprop="headline" class="article__hed article__hed--" >Over 170,000 Nonprofits Lost All Their Data. Is Microsoft to Blame?</h1>

    Maybe it should read "170,000 nonprofits having to invoke their data restoration strategies and now in the market for ethical cloud providers, after Microsoft predictably lets them down".
