Here’s a tweet from Corey Quinn describing how bonkers R2 pricing is:

> let’s remember that the internet is 1-to-many. If 1 million people download that 1GB this month, my cost with @cloudflare R2 this way rounds up to 13¢. With @awscloud S3 it’s $59,247.52.

Won't you have the same problem with R2, once your data is in that provider?

No, because CloudFlare doesn’t charge for egress traffic.
