To avoid the Mb/MB confusion I've gotten in the habit of writing Mbit and MByte, so there's really no ambiguity (like, even if I used them right, it's reasonable that people might not be sure if I'm using them right or not)
At least when talking about network-related things, particularly transfer rates. With storage and things it's way more rare that anyone might be talking about bits.
