It's stupidly confusing because the regional transfer of 1GB free per month isn't technically part of the "Free Tier" as advertised on this page [0], it's just part of the normal egress pricing model of the individual services [1] [2].

AWS really needs to fix the "Free Tier" to make it less confusing. 0: https://aws.amazon.com/free/ https://aws.amazon.com/free/ 1: https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/on-demand/ https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/on-demand/ 2: https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/ https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/
