You can not get actual unmetered 1gb/s for anywhere close to that. If you start pushing anywhere close to that much bandwidth, you will be throttled / have your account closed. For example, Hetzner caps your bandwidth at 20TB per month.
Additionally, if you are actually pushing close to that much traffic, you can negotiate guaranteed commit prices w/ AWS that are competitive (especially when you consider the quality of bandwidth. I can only get ~100 mb/s to my hetzner server because of how bad their peering is. I can easily saturate my 1GB connection to anywhere in AWS.)

(Having said that, this does only apply to egress via cloudfront. Things like charging for intra A-Z bandwidth within the same region is insane, and for many workloads may be surprisingly expensive.)
Yes, I was pointing out that many of their products have explicit limits.
But more importantly, the second link I posted shows how that despite being "unlimited" - it's not uncommon for hetzner to throttle / close your account if you go over unstated traffic limits.

No, you clearly stated that 1gb/s servers have 20tb cap, but no such products have such limitation, no links say anything like that.
It makes total sense to cap 20gb/s, because such unlimited bandwidth is clearly too much.

you can argue that, though they didn't close or throttle account, they sent warning, and cap was 12 times higher than what you previously stated.
