>"abusing" the "unlimited backups" to store "limited" terabytes. If you can't afford to offer unlimited backups, maybe put a limit?

How is that abuse? "Unlimited" is a pretty audacious plan to offer. Maybe Backblaze shouldn't offer something impossible.

Yeah, screw those people. I can't think of a single other reason a profit driven company would cut corners while storage prices rise due to AI companies.

I'm asking as a genuine question, where or how should people backup large datastores? Also what counts as too large? I've heard Backblaze doesn't cover NAS so i wouldn't be able to backup my 2TB zfs RAID, but like is that too much? I want to do 3-2-1 for my homelab to preserve all pictures in my immich and the backups of my LXCs and VMs, but I'm just not sure how to go about it, and I was considering archives of those files + backblaze...

Hard to say thats it if just having 2TB uploaded is enough to be considered in the top. Especially if they've already started ignoring other cloud files in people's backups

Yeah, a few hundred outliers can really ruin it. People: have some self awareness and don’t be a douchebag.
