You can actually get all of English Wikipedia for the low, low price of like <= 130GB

I was talking about the whole Wikipedia with all of its languages. If you look at the beginning of the article where they mentioned they Elon "implied" and had a line under it. That's a link to one of his tweets that was fact checked by the community on Twitter. That's where I got the 428TB number.

My comment was not actually intending to contradict you but rather point out a tangential and potentially useful F[reak]un[omic]-type fact

I got you. I didn't take it as such. Just explained my comment in case it was a bit confusing :)
