That’s kind of the point: Companies shouldn’t be allowed to advertise anything as unlimited when it is, in fact, not.
They shouldn’t advertise lots of things but personal responsibility could have resulted in this service still being available so the bigger issue to me is the self regulation. I would bet good money the reason people used this much storage was for commercial reasons which would be abusing a personal use account. Which people should be pissed at rather than the unlimited.
Companies shouldn’t be allowed to lie about services, full stop.
They didn’t lie. Users could upload whatever they could. But individuals uploaded so much it made the company reassess what they offered. So like in life, the rest of us lose out because a handful of assholes abused a system
You seem to be struggling with the English language and what words mean. This is beyond my ability to help you at this point so have a good day and good luck!
No I’m not. The issue isn’t unlimited as the company did offer unlimited storage. You could upload whatever you wanted. The issue was that too many people used so much of it that they ruined the service for everyone. Which is why the issue are the users who abuse a service.
Unlimited doesn’t mean “upload what you want to a certain limit”, it means “upload what you want, as much as you want”.
You’re misunderstanding the word unlimited, as countless others before me have already pointed out to you
No I’m understanding that unlimited doesn’t mean I shouldn’t consider if uploading 30 TB of data would cause problems just like I don’t assume free condiment’s means I can take every condiment in the restaurant
