All businesses better take notice of AWS’s actions

If Amazon is willing to shut down service to businesses they disagree with, who’s to say they won’t find fault with others?

They’ve definitely laid the groundwork for the future.
The least shocking part of all of this is the progs cheering it all on with glee.

This has always been a risk, now people are going to listen to some of us that pointed this out over the last decade.
Centralization has issues, which is why companies moved away from centralization in the late 80s and 90s i.e. IBM.

Amazon could blackball small businesses that sell through their commie platform and run them out of business overnight; all because they don’t like what they say. This is communist China and people better wake the frick up.

It was a really bad business move by Amazon.
I expect a lot of IT groups will be talking about moving away from them this week.
A buddy of mine said that Delta Airlines IT people were pushing really hard to move to aws, but I suspect this stunt will give them pause, even if many of them are leftist and would love to ban all conservatives from planes.
Companies have given too much control over to the cloud companies. If you dare to do it, you better have your code and databases backed up locally and have a plan to either run local or to be able to move quickly to another service.
Bad move Amazon. Even other cloud companies should be pissed at them because this shows a MAJOR flaw and fear that smart businesses have had about moving their infrastructure.

like Bongino said,
a parallel economy has to be built, tech, banking, all the critical functions.
ETA: it's so weird to see the dawn of a new era of segregation in the U.S.A.

But the lefties on here, including several attorneys currently raging against anything Trump, says nothing to see here, we’re overreacting

The more abhorrent anti America behavior I see from the Dim Marxist party the more I know my decision to drop kick that party to the curb 35 years ago was the prudent decision.

It’s amazing how many people like you had the foresight to see where this was all headed, but the GOP for decades pretended it wasn’t trending in this direction.

The GOP is complicit.

Impossible to deny that fact now.

All Amazon has to do is stop paying all their bills to vendors. China would cringe.

Yep. We were starting to colo our DC to AWS as a cold site to get rid of our secondary data center. We had a meeting and the CIO informed us our CEO ordered us to stop immediately. We are a top 3 entity in the US in our relative market.
Guessing our legal team is trying to find some way to wiggle out of the contract.

The railroads tried to limit access to shipping to their affiliated companies back in their heyday. That resulted in them becoming common carriers. Amazon, Google, Twitter and Facebook are a lot like those old railroads. They call themselves "platforms," but they are restricting trade for all of the wrong reasons.
