Another reason why Google/Amazon is too centralized to be a single point of failure. We need more decentralized Internet. Not more clever hacks.

IIRC, didn't domain fronting only work because Google/Amazon were thought to be too big to block? IMHO, what we need is a stronger consensus that Western companies shouldn't let themselves be bullied by censorious regimes dangling the promise of profits or access. They shouldn't be allowed to defend such decisions as profit-seeking amorality.
- Shorel 9y agoIn this particular case, the problem is not Google or Amazon. They are technology providers and isolating each of their customers is actually a good thing. The problem is the Internet censoring by governments.
