Hetzner specifically is not unlimited/unmetered: You get a ridiculous amount of traffic included, and then you pay per TB.

The current price per TB is 1 EUR + VAT if applicable, so even if we assume you'll have to pay the German VAT, it's 1.35 USD/TB.

> Hetzner specifically is not unlimited/unmetered

That's true for Hetzner Cloud, but Hetzner's dedicated servers have been unmetered (with a guarantee of 1 Gbps) since October 2018[1].

Using the AWS figures above, it's over $20/TB, so Hetzner still compares very favourably.
