It's much worse - if the data isn't just a ton of tiny files, and you're able to spin up a bunch of workers for parallelism, you can get up to 120 Gbps per storage account (without going to the extreme of requiring a special quota increase).

That means in a little bit over 5 minutes, the data could have been downloaded by someone. Even most well run security teams won't be able to respond quickly enough for that type of event.
