| While I certainly question a system that allows a person to run up such a steep tab in the first place, this story smells. >"So what does it take to rack up $1200 of internet use? In my case, just 155 page views, mostly to my email." Looking at SA per MB pricing [1] you'd need to pull down just shy of 1.2GB to be charged that much - 7.5MB per "page view". Personally, my Gmail and Outlook Inbox are a few hundred K each. So maybe the author just doesn't know what he's talking about? according to his bio [2]... >"Today, I design and code Trend Hunter until 4am because I like it." It would seem likely that statement is an exaggeration, the one about the number of page views is disingenuous or both. Either way, the author loses credibility. In any case, the author is apparently the globe trotting, baja racing, "rule breaking", former banker son of a VC [2] - he can surely afford to pay for - at best - failing to pay attention to the terms. 1: http://www.singaporeair.com/jsp/cms/en_UK/flying_with_us/inf... 2: http://www.trendhunter.com/Jeremy |
