Right - I’ve been on them since EC2 flat network / simple DB days and was trying to remember if I ever got an email like this.

I know google has jacked rates (maps etc) and killed services (I used their first paas before it was basically abandoned)

I have argued online with folks about their pricing - my point usually being as soon as you try to do Netflix or YouTube on the “Free” or unlimited or ultra low cost providers - you find out it’s a lie.

My impression was hetzner had started null routing customers for “abuse” who used a lot. No idea if that’s true, but used to be the way the “unlimited” VPS providers did it.
