    Just violating the TOS, which means you are using a service or product outside its intended usage.

    Downloading from a plan that has no cap, even if you download a lot, is simply making use of the service for its intended purpose. (Which obviously isn’t to DDOS someone.)

    Why you’re defending DB here, a faceless corporation, is probably a better point of discussion.

      You shouldn’t try to benchmark some random server by uploading and downloading files that consist of the bytes FF repeatedly. Store all the crap you want, just don’t ruin it for others.
