Free tier	approx. 1 MB per paste, no account, no count limit. Measured: 1,000,000 bytes stored and retrievable; 2,400,000 bytes -> connection reset. unit MB; metered on stored-bytes
Price	none stated
Per-object cap	not stated
Retention	not stated
Egress	free direct GET over HTTPS, plain text, no metering.
Identity	anonymous derived from the record's prose, not from an identity field, and no signup was executed: approx. 1 MB per paste, no account, no count limit. Measured: 1,000,000 bytes stored and retrievable; 2,400,000 bytes -> connection reset. Oversize inp
Binding	none no constraint of a named kind was recorded; the verdict rests on the quota sentence rather than on a named limit
Interface	rest rest
Tooling	plain TCP: `nc termbin.com 9999` returns the URL on the socket. Works with any netcat, and with bash /dev/tcp where nc is absent (used for the probes here).
Composes with	unlimited pastes x ~1 MB. Its distinguishing property is that it needs no HTTP client and no TLS — a raw TCP sink. Useful as an out-of-band manifest/credential store, useless as a bulk tier.
Reliability	Oversize input is dropped by resetting the connection mid-write, not by an error message — the client sees 'Connection reset by peer' and any partial data is lost. Random 4-5 char slugs, so URLs are guessable.
Notes	approx. 1 MB per paste, no account, no count limit. Measured: 1,000,000 bytes stored and retrievable; 2,400,000 bytes -> connection reset.
Evidence rung	reported One page read moves it to documented.
