They do know what a Gigabyte is. It also seems they know what a gibibyte is and that the customer's probably don't. (Very true) 2^30 is a gibibyte. How about "Google mixes up Gibibyte with Gigabyte" as a proper title, yesh.
Umm, unless they edited it since your post, 2^30 bytes is the correct definition of a Gigabyte. edit - Oh you're being pedantic about GB vs. GiB. Too bad in computer science, GB /means/ GiB. Besides, for folks like you, you get get a "free" 7%. You should be elated about the 7% of free bandwidth + storage you're stealing from Google.
I'm more curious why the hell they chose 'ingress' and 'egress' instead of the far more commonly accepted "inbound" and "outbound" terms.
