It should fix itself eventually, either companies will choose to use Google or Microsoft rather than AWS or the government will smack AWS with monopoly laws. The main concern there is that Bezos has become so entrenched in DC with the washington post, DOD cloud contract, and new headquarters that it's hard to tell if we can rely on the government to do anything

- matte_black 8y agoAmazon is entrenched in a lot more than just government. Consumers, shareholders, merchants... a lot of people depend on Amazon to be around and in good health.
- AndrewKemendo 8y agoHonestly I doubt it. 1. If Amazon is providing a service that is as good or easier to implement than others, people don't care enough about competition or open markets to decide based on that. 2. From the govt perspective, I'm on the front lines of the DoD cloud discussions and I can tell you that even though we don't want a single provider, and hopefully I can push hard to ensure we have multiple providers, Amazon has the mindshare in the govt and growing.
