"Current policy?" So, you will retain a right to change such fees when you feel like it.
This is a serious matter. We are building a new site for our company with Netlify, but we can't open ourselves to this predatory practice. And even if you do not mean to be predatory, even the option of such is enough.
If not resolved with a clean, legally binding promise, our company (and probably quite a few others) must move our business to Cloudflare, Amazon, or some other competitor of yours.
Presumably your company’s site won’t be on their limited free tier.
The paid tier (like $19/mo/user) has the same vulnerability. Overages are charged at the same price per GB as the free tier and they could still be charged $100k for the exact same thing.

Is that unreasonable?
Why are you asking this question here? Any actual company would have reviewed all the legal documents prior to choosing a provider. The promises you seek are the exact reason "enterprise-grade" providers can (and do) charge so much.
edit: hey guess what, Netlify offers an enterprise plan, I'd bet they will be happy to offer you a "clean, legally binding promise": https://www.netlify.com/pricing/?category=enterprise
That does not help when we are evaluating and build the solution. We will proceed with this one.
