Action Needed! As of May 1st, MSA logins (e.g. @outlook, @google, @yahoo) have been retired from DPC and all downstream portals (Retail Partner Center, OEM BI Central, DCCN, DP Connector). In order to access DPC, you will need an AAD (Azure Active Directory) login. Migrate now to restore your access.
Haven’t seen any mention of this anywhere and there isn’t exactly a general Microsoft news sub-forum for their internal organizational site updates so I’m putting it here.

I assume that’s DPC, the Device Partner Center.
Why would they do this and what are the implications? Is it likely that MSA is its entirety will eventually be migrated to Azure Active Directory accounts for some reason? Is there any practical difference in the end? Who does this apply to? I don’t think I’ve ever used DPC, I just saw I could login there and tried to use my microsoft account login like I do everywhere else, but when I do I get this prompt to either migrate, or immediately logout.
