Autoscaling Memes

The SRE just found the ultimate money hack. AWS is basically a financial black hole where your cloud budget goes to die. Launch a few over-provisioned instances, forget about that auto-scaling group for a weekend, or accidentally deploy to all regions simultaneously, and boom—you've burned through $100M faster than you can say "terraform destroy." The genie adding a fourth rule is just acknowledging the universal truth that AWS billing is basically legalized theft with a nice dashboard.
