False equivalence. You are not "tipping" cloud providers, you are paying them to perform a service.

Let's try a modified analogy and put you in the scenario...

You digitize cassettes for a living. Someone across the country sends you one and asks you to convert it to an MP3. You received the tape and digitize it ..but they refuse to send the money.

Are you allowed to not send the files? Are you allowed to not send the tape back? The answer to both is yes.
