They don't spend 30 million per year, they spend 30 million over what they generate.

I don't think they'd generate peanuts so as to not even cover hardware costs.

That is my point. I do not understand how they total costs can be over 30M. It is mostly static content that begs for CDN cache. It is also not mission critical.

Probably they do a lot of content moderation, which takes human beings at least at some stage.
