Generally these sketchy plans can be used for redundant offsite backup. If your offsite backup goes down, you can just get a new provider. I've never done it personally, but I know a lot of people use this mentality with e.g. unlimited Google Drive plans, or any other abusive use of hosting services.

Ah now that's actually not a bad idea. Wouldn't be bad for something like that then.
