this is splitting hairs but amazon is a tech giant?

The biggest - as a web services provider (cloud computing, hosting, data services, etc.) AWS is larger than its 12 largest competitors combined.

Read that again. Take the list of the 13 largest web companies, add the numbers 2 through 13 together (this list includes IBM, Google, Microsoft), and that’s still smaller than Amazon Web Services!

That’s just how much of the web Amazon controls. Watched something on Netflix? That came off an AWS server. Downloaded a new app on your iPhone? You probably got it off an AWS server. Stayed at a major hotel? Flown on a major airline? Used a major credit card? All of these things more likely than not ran through an AWS server.
