Indeed. I would estimate that at current LiteCoin values and difficulty level, mining on EC2 will stay profitable until the spot price for these instances passes $0.20-0.21. One thing that will slightly slow down the abuse of this is that by default AWS limits you to 10 spot instances per region for the g2.2xlarge type.

Is the limit anything more than an email exchange to confirm that you aren't using a stolen credit card?
couldnt you just register multiple users - and thus by-pass this limit of 10?
You could, if you had multiple credit cards I guess.
