By restriction I meant handling of files; a better word would be added 
functionality. For example a Word file would be opened in Word Online or 
you could choose to download it but an html file will either be previewed 
as source code or downloaded but never served as a web page, which is why 
if one wishes to serve a web page it needs to be renamed *.html --> *.aspx. 
What I meant was that as it is cloud software or managed they can 
add/remove/change functionality at any point in time. And of course there 
is always a non-zero chance all your data is wiped tomorrow/next week/next 
year form their servers without notice.

Now the funny part is that I can share about any file (with a 
guest/antonymous link) but apparently for *.aspx files the user needs to 
have an Office365 account on the same tenant/domain and login. Which means 
that one cannot share it with any other person unless said person also has 
also an account; or rename it back to *.html (but the you can't view it 
online.) 

I can't confirm whether giving only read/view permissions will prohibit the 
'save' function but it should do just that.
