I have been using Netlify for years, for my own projects, but also recommended it to all my freelance clients to host the projects that I was building for them. Going forward I will move all my static pages to other hosting providers.

The Netlify team must think: we waive the fees, because in this instance we noticed the negative press and want to avoid this from blowing up. When this happens to other users, we don’t care, as long as it does not go viral.

Such a pity, Netlify has great UX and I was so happy hosting static pages on their service. But without spending limits, this is not an option for me any more. I could not sleep well when there is a possibility of a $10.000 invoice reaching my inbox.
