I don't agree. I'm perfectly happy seeing their internal metrics.

I remember one night a long time ago while working at Google, I was trying a new approach for loading some data involving an external system. To get the performance I needed, I was going to be making a lot of requests to that service, and I was a little concerned about overloading it. I ran my job and opened up that service's monitoring console, poked around, and determined that I was in fact overloading it. I sent them an email and they added some additional replicas for me.

Now I live in the world of the cloud where I pay $100 per X requests to some service, and they won't even tell me if the errors it's returning are their fault or my fault? Not acceptable.
