    Original VMA11 and VMA21 had 10TB; so basically you went from 10 -> Unlimited -> 5. That "unlimited" is unsustainable could be understood (however, everyone could predict that it'd attrack heavy users - they didn't?), but returning to a limit (no, not fair use, it's a limit) that is half of the original one is stupid.

    Blame folks trying to push 100TB through a $4 per month VPS. I do think that providers who sell "unlimited" are culpable here, but users have got to be reasonable. "Unlimited" really means "some reasonable number if you are actually using the resources on the machine to do something other than proxy your IPTV service's traffic."

    Nah, unlimited should mean unlimited. Provider's fault.

    yea, someone basically shared here ss with 500 tb usage on cloudblast
    Though maybe that "unlimited" thing was part of their promotion
    or i though maybe they have good contract with their upstream
    but since their performance is ass (ordered lowest plan in Netherlands and got 300 gb6 score few days ago, someone shared yabs with same performance in yabs thread) the only feature they can offer is hourly billing lol

    If this is true, then this does seem like a bait & switch.
