Netlify bandwidth fee
Today some guy posted to Reddit "Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site" 1. To summarize, he was charged $104K for 190TB of DDoS traffic. After the post went viral and cross-posted to HN 2, the CEO swept in and forgave the bill.
How ridiculous it is Netlify charge $55 per 100GB bandwidth (!!). But I guess the VC needs to be repaid somehow.

Can you imagine getting charged $100,000+ for bandwidth that's actually worth <$1k?

It is important to note they do not have their own planes, so they do not contribute to pollution like other managers do. Such hosting is great because it cares about environment.
