L4sBotToo many users abused unlimited Dropbox plans, so they’re getting limits
carl_dungeonYou can’t abuse something that has no limit. Stop calling things unlimited and then blaming users when they are not.
Sure you can, they did it here. All you can eat buffet doesn’t mean I should take all the crsb legs every time they bring out a new tray.
You either get it or you don’t. But these people who abuse and exploit things are why we will never have nice things
Sounds like your buffet should plan for more crab legs to be made each time
Why, you know there isn’t mythical endless and free source of crab legs right?
As a thinking person, nobody should reasonably thing there is. “Endless” is advertising. You’re suppose to still respect its a business and that other people will want some.

If there’s not then they have no business selling an unlimited supply of it.

Where I’m from services should be as advertised, legally so.
It’s was unlimited. People uploaded whatever they wanted. The business had to reassess because these gluttonous people took it too far and so the service ended.
In what world are “unlimited” and “all you can eat” synonymous with “too far”?
“Too far” implies a definite limit, which is the antonym of unlimited and all you can eat, regardless of the business’s ability to sustain it. If there is a limit, don’t advertise it as unlimited or all you can eat that’s false advertisement.
In what world is anything unlimited
_haha_oh_wow_That’s kind of the point: Companies shouldn’t be allowed to advertise anything as unlimited when it is, in fact, not.
They shouldn’t advertise lots of things but personal responsibility could have resulted in this service still being available so the bigger issue to me is the self regulation. I would bet good money the reason people used this much storage was for commercial reasons which would be abusing a personal use account. Which people should be pissed at rather than the unlimited.
Companies shouldn’t be allowed to lie about services, full stop.
They didn’t lie. Users could upload whatever they could. But individuals uploaded so much it made the company reassess what they offered. So like in life, the rest of us lose out because a handful of assholes abused a system
Unlimited doesn’t mean “upload what you want to a certain limit”, it means “upload what you want, as much as you want”.
You’re misunderstanding the word unlimited, as countless others before me have already pointed out to you
You seem to be struggling with the English language and what words mean. This is beyond my ability to help you at this point so have a good day and good luck!
No I’m not. The issue isn’t unlimited as the company did offer unlimited storage. You could upload whatever you wanted. The issue was that too many people used so much of it that they ruined the service for everyone. Which is why the issue are the users who abuse a service.
