Australian founder sues Adobe, says $15,000 monthly cost forced home sale

Australian beauty entrepreneur Briony Kennedy claims a $15,000-a-month Adobe website upgrade triggered a financial crisis at her brand, Adorn Cosmetics. She alleges sales plunged 30%, advertising losses exceeded $1 million and mounting debts forced her to sell her family home and reduce staff. Kennedy is now pursuing legal action against Adobe after unsuccessful mediation talks.
