I wonder if Cloud vendors have factored the above into their prices.

A bit like things like tethering, when such "unintended usages" surface the Service affected hit back by invoking their safety net Acceptable Usage Policy (1) throttling or curtailing or (2) charging an excess for the usage not deemed acceptable.

Will this happen in this case?
