I've moved probably thousands? of workloads to AWS in the last decade.
Not a single one of them has been 'internet facing' or pushed much/any data out of the environment. Average bandwidth bills are <$1k/yr.
I'd guess most of AWS's customers aren't....that kind of shop.
If you are, that's definitely something to be aware of though, no doubt.
