Mike Austin's YouTube talk contrasts 'passive consumers' and 'informed consumers' of cloud vendor services. The speaker describes passive consumers as those who merely accept rising invoices (example: agreed $25,000/month rising to $30,000 then $35) without tools or action to investigate causes.

You know what? What I consider many people working with cloud vendors today, they're kind of passive consumers. And really, you want to change that to be an informed consumer. So passive consumers, they look at their invoice and they say, okay, I agreed to originally agreed to 25,000amonth. Now that invoice is up to 30amonth. The next month it goes to 35. And they're just accepting it, and they're really taking any actions and they don't have the tools to be able to figure out, well, why, why is this going.
