Expecting someone to lie doesn't mean rolling over and refusing to acknowledge it. Not unlike people making the expected reactionary cynical commentary on internet forums still demands a response. I mean, you're very perceptive! But that's not very interesting, it's sort of the price of admission here at HN. Oracle lying in its product naming is more so.

When Amazon says something is always free in the free tier, it's opposite things that are free for the first 12 months of your account.

  But... does Amazon say things in their free tier are "always" free? I don't think they do. This was an Oracle lie. If you take a service that you told someone was "always free" and start charging them for that, that's a lie. It just is. I'm gobsmacked that this community views this as acceptable marketing. Is this the moral foundation of our new era of startup overlords?

> over and refusing to acknowledge it. I guess one option would be to vote with your walled and stop paying them? Oh.. wait.. Whatever Oracle is in general this specifically (and the reduced 2 CPU + 12 GB tier ) is still massively more "generous" than what any other cloud provider gives you for free.
