I deleted all my Vercel project, moved to Cloudflare, send this support message to Vercel:

Vercel seems like the perfect solution, and I love how it supports the development community.

I am moving all my current and future hobby projects away from Vercel due to concerns raised in this discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39520776

Although I am a very small customer of Vercel, I have been advising larger organizations on IT and data infrastructure for the last decade or so.

I can say with very high certainty that spending limits are a critical discussion point in every large organization when making IT decisions. I've observed multiple instances where a potentially better solution was not selected due to the risk of overspending.

    Thanks @doque !!

    Even though I've been actively looking for this, I couldn't find it.

    However, this solution ONLY provides notifications; it doesn't address the underlying problem. I could be sick for five days and not check my phone.

    What I need—and, in my experience, what all larger companies require—is a method to halt consumption entirely, similar to Snowflake."
