> crazy things like run an NFS server over the internet

Is that so crazy? If 10G was the default, you could just plop a cheap NAS at home and nobody would need to pay monthly subscriptions for cloud services.

How is 1G insufficient for running a NAS over the internet?

For cloud services, I only need to match the bandwidth my cellphone has for my home NAS, so 1Gbps would be fine.

10Gbps is like.... my /home on my desktop could be served via NFS from somewhere else and it would probably be barely noticeable. That's just another level of crazy.
