Shocking news just in, "Cloud providers, who make money for per/GB storage, charge almost nothing to take in data but charge shed loads to let you take your data out!".

My "bleedin' obvious" alarm is off the chart! Seriously, why you moaning now? All the providers have done this for years. I remember signing up for Glacier back around 2012 and that was stated clear as daylight in Amazon's docs, "Put your data in for almost nothing, storage will cost almost nothing, taking it out is where we will charge you and here is how much per GB.".
