Many providers will cancel you for that, being as that it's a breach

come along and break their business model with 10gb of data that's
not web accessible for their $10/yr plan they will shut you down.
You're right. I forgot about that ...they warned about that with my
personal account a few years ago.... but for three to five years they
never said a word. However, now we pay for a private server with
Godaddy, so we get to make our own rules.

why is that a better deal for you then just buying a domain name
from Goddady for 7-10 bucks a year and then having a free 10GB
website that you can ftp into, and then upload your backup in an
encrypted zip file ?
