AWS S3. Easy divorce (Possible overspending on money)?

Question

Amazon Web Services

Good afternoon.

The goal is to put the file (200Mb) on a reliable and always available resource.
I got acquainted with the price list for Amazon AWS S3. The phrase "15 GB of outgoing traffic every month for one year" is very confusing. and "First 1 TB / month $0.0300 per GB"
i.e. they themselves can download my file 3333 times and earn $100.
those. I'm super easy to bet money on. (and it's super easy for them to make money with just a few requests).

Or I do not understand something?
ps can you recommend any other reliable hosting?

Answer 1

You can buy a virtual machine for $3-7, there are options with unlimited* traffic.

Answer 2

oh yes, they want to swindle you so badly... someone from the outside who finds your link from s3 can certainly do something nasty and sip your traffic in the wget cycle.
Just to clarify, AWS hosted Instagram for a while. You are nobody for them and an extra 100 bucks to them ... well, you understand.
In general, why not use some kind of google drive?

Answer 4

Facepalm.
Uh-huh, Amazon employees have nothing else to do but rummage through the sites and file dumps of customers in order to wind up additional services for them.
This assumption is ridiculous - if there were such cases (especially with Amazon), all thematic forums would already be buzzing about this.
Traffic restriction is practiced by half of the hosting companies. If something confuses you - look for hosting without traffic restrictions, there are such.
