Too many users abused unlimited Dropbox plans, so they’re getting limits::Some people have taken “as much space as you need” too literally.
Why, you know there isn’t mythical endless and free source of crab legs right?
If there’s not then they have no business selling an unlimited supply of it.
Nobody should reasonably think there is. “Endless” is advertising.
Where I’m from services should be as advertised, legally so.
It’s was unlimited. People uploaded whatever they wanted. The business had to reassess because these gluttonous people took it too far and so the service ended.
No, if it was unlimited, I should be able to pipe /dev/urandom to it for fun if that’s what I choose to do. What’s this about “gluttony”? They sold the service as that.
You can do it doesn’t mean you should which is my point. I can leave trash in a theater because they offer a service where workers clean it up. Doesn’t mean I should even though it’d advertised as part of the theater experience.
I’d go so far to say that we’re dealing with a culture of people who are in capable of self regulating and that is why so many things are worse for people today. Just because its offered as a service shouldn’t mean I push its limits regardless of the gimmick used to advertise it.
The business advertised something to differentiate itself from the free market, it’s not the free markets fault if the business cannot sustain what it advertised
In what world are “unlimited” and “all you can eat” synonymous with “too far”?
“Too far” implies a definite limit, which is the antonym of unlimited and all you can eat, regardless of the business’s ability to sustain it. If there is a limit, don’t advertise it as unlimited or all you can eat that’s false advertisement.
