Oh, long before google drive existed?

I don't remember the "increasing forever" ever being particularly fast. I found some results from 2007 and 2012 both saying it was 4 bytes per second, <130MB per year.

So it's true that the number hasn't increased in ten years, but that last increase was +5GB all by itself. They've done a reasonable job of keeping up.

Arguably they should have kept adding a gigabyte each year, based on the intermittent boosts they were giving, but by that metric they're only about 5GB behind.
