Frankly it’s none of y’alls beeswax what medium of content I’m deploying. I can understand restrictions on illegal and offensive content. I won’t be using Cloudflare if including a file or even putting some base64 in my html file will be a ToS violation.

It's these petty restrictions that make these pricing policies convenient, and it hurts the market :(

Wouldn't a significant restriction on what you can host for free move it further from being dumping? I don't understand your logic.

  • No, if they had to be more consistent with the rules this type of dumping wouldn’t be as effective.

    • What's inconsistent about allowing web pages but not video?

      If they had a limit of 50MB average per page navigation, would you call that rule consistent? It would have largely the same effect and I don't think it would affect the ease of dumping.
