From their blog:

We’re changing our billing units to match how people already think about their product. For example, web maps usage will now be measured primarily by map load. This change aligns our invoices with metrics companies already track and makes it easier to compare usage with other mapping providers. You’ll be charged whenever your website or web application loads, not by when users pan and zoom around the map.

Another interesting highlight is that loaded maps have a session length of 12h.

Web maps using Mapbox GL JS v1.0.0 and higher are billed by map loads. The maximum session length for a map load is 12 hours. If a user has the same map open after 12 hours, we will count that as a new map load session.

So, in essence, this change seems to make the billing scheme similar to what Google has: map loads count and that makes it easier to track the usage from analytics services, which count page loads.

If you don't want to take this new pricing into use: just change the Mapbox GL JS library to use earlier releases (< v1.0.0).

However, there's a DL: Nov 20, 2019.

It looks like the pricing might increase at that point quite much for old versions since previous "view rate" -based billing is changed to "tile"-based.
