But the guy's tweet specifically mentions Reston (Virginia). This is in the vicinity of us-east-1. By the way, I'm pretty sure none of the actual AWS datacenters are in Reston proper. They are in Ashburn and other more sparse suburbs. Source: I live in the DC area and regularly visit Reston and Herndon. There are large AWS offices in Herndon but not so many datacenters. Real estate in Reston is pretty expensive.
