all these mentions of multi-cloud are confusing: is this about moving VMs from Google to AWS? or is it data from Backblaze to DO? or what is this exactly? This post seems to be about cloud storage, edging bets between different object storage providers. Someone should come up with a more precise term.

The idea is that you can store and move your data around on any of the mentioned clouds. So yeah, you could migrate data from Google to AWS or BB to DO. Or you could put your data on AWS and have it automatically replicated (backed up) to Azure and Google. It's a "multi-cloud data controller" cos you're controlling data on multiple clouds :)
