~~I always hated the term unlimited when it's not really unlimited. Is it really abuse if you're using it as intended?~~
Edit: I eat my words. People are assholes. I thought this was referring to providers of unlimited storage or bandwidth, only to say "oh, you've using it too much, so we're going to throttle you."
I think you are right the first time.
“Unlimited “ only ever an advertising term, to garner attention. No one ever intends to deliver on it .
I remember when google photos offered unlimited when it first came out. Called that off pretty damn quick
