    Well that didn’t last very long. It was 8 MB for like six years and then it just went to 25 MB maybe a year ago and now we’re back down to 10 MB.

    I’m surprised they aren’t offsetting the cost by selling all our data to language learning models like everyone else is

      “by selling all our data to language learning models like everyone else is”

      I imagine China is using it for free since Tencent owns a 38% stake.

        Just to be clear, I 100% think they are selling our data. What I meant was I’m surprised they’re concerned about the size of the uploads when they could just be selling the uploaded data.
