It's not a question of being naughty or not, it's what tasks you are facilitating with your graphic. In yours, it's very easy to see how the bytes vary, but while you can read of the costs, you can't easily compare the red/green and blue symbols. I think the plot would be more effective as two plots - one with bytes and one with dollars.
