While usage caps are typically in MB, GB or "Unlimited", bandwidth is usually measured in Megabits and Gigabits. It might seem pedantic, but why not use the correct units in the first place to avoid potential confusion?

I didn't mean for my comment to come across as sarcastic. I haven't tried Atom myself so I don't know if the limit is actually 2Mb or 2MB. Even the latter is a very small limit for any text editor. Would you not agree?
