I'll have to disagree with you.  If I'm a hosting company and one of my
clients overruns their quota, I'd shut down the account and send them an
alert. Repeated overruns, I'd terminate the account. I don't think it would
ever be right to add a root account to a clients server without their
permission. Though i suppose if that was in the account's T&C's then it
would be o.k.
