Not triggered at all. Just highlighting the fact that Pinata is the exact opposite of what IPFS stands for, it’s not open, nor is it accessible to all. It’s a price gouging service that takes advantage of simply offering IPFS storage to price gouge people. How is that respectable at all? They charge you for basic data protection services.
For the last year they literally had 0 redundant storage of IPFS data. It was simply one node hosting your data. It’s irresponsible for a storage service provider to carelessly handle people’s data like that. They’re solution to basic data redundancy measures was to price gouge people.
All prices like that do is serve to ensure that IPFS will never be adopted by the mainstream. How on earth is IPFS supposed to get adopted if it’s 10x the cost of traditional storage services? People get upset at AWS charging $0.01/gb for S3 storage, and then hammering you with bandwidth costs. You could store your entire datasets on S3 even with the bandwidth charges than what Pinata charges.
The only thing that does is make it harder for IPFS to be adopted by the mainstream.
