While that is true in theory, if you in practice saturate your bandwidth 24x7 by reselling it your contract will probably get cancelled (or at least that is the case for most "unlimited" contracts).
I don't think you actually answered the questions of the parent.
- bauruine 4y agoThat's possible true for the <50$ servers but with 143$ it's sustainable for the provider even if you use it 24/7. Yes 0.0005$ per GB egress and a provider in Europe still makes money.
- srmarm 4y agoThere is a difference in this case between 'unlimited' and 'unmetered'. The limit is on the throughput (1Gbps) rather than the total bandwidth which is itself naturally limited by the throughput x time. That being said I could still see this being against TOS if you end up chewing up SSDs, hosting dodgy content or running at full power constantly.
