This whole story is very strange.

All over the Internet people are slapping google on the back for..... pretty much nothing. In fact much of the praise seems to be worded as though Google had dropped all egress fees.

Google continues to charge the nothing-short-of-highway-robbery 12 cents per gigabyte unless you are in Australia in which case its 19 cents per gigabyte. This is astoundingly bad value.

What are people hailing Google's "free to exit" in such glowing terms. Even herein the comments people are cheering for Google.

Worth noting at this point that Cloudflare R2 charges 0 cents per gigabyte egress.

Hmmm, I'm not seeing many positive comments here about Google. Maybe I started reading a lot later than you? :)
