Do you plan to curate the free plans? If not, how will you prevent abuse? (thinking in terms of both the service and its users)

Yes :) Happy to discuss in detail if you have specific types of abuse in mind. Our first line of defense is to get help from the community through downvoting useless content.

The main thing is how you are able to offer unlimited disk, when anyone can start uploading data? Some users might upload very large amounts of innocent data, others might simply abuse it as a sort of data backup system. More nefarious users might even try to distribute malware.
