So any sufficiently motivated/funded malicious actor who can register a whole bundle of domains can use up 50% of the entire free space on my disk? Am I getting this right?

Is the only defense against this the requirement for per-origin permission to be granted?

That's been true for over a decade. Hasn't happened in the wild though AFAIK. I don't think there's an incentive for anyone to do this.
