Yev here -> if you have a ticket number I'd love to know it b/c that's not accurate and I want to make sure support is trained properly. If you're using more than 10TB of storage you'll experience no change. We've updated our blog post w/ more explicit information (apologies for confusion on this one).

Sure thing: #1084672

The exact wording was: "If you are interested in increasing these limits, we do offer a higher threshold to customers who commit to a minimum of 20TB of our B2 Reserve Capacity-Based Storage service through one of our reseller partners."

Yev here - I confirmed that that's definitely a PATH towards not hitting those limits, but no reason to pay for 20TB if you're not using that much (especially if you're not using a reseller). I'm working with the team to change some of that messaging. The TL/DR is that most people will NOT see a change (we did a lot of analysis on the back end to see whether the throttling of <10TB customers would affect their behavior and most won't see a thing). This has been in production since Wednesday, so if you're not seeing any changes, your use-case is likely unaffected.
