It says more: “don’t get caught providing a service for terrorists organizing violent acts”... AWS doesn’t want your business. Neither does anyone else. Nor do they want to be legally liable in any way. So if you’re in that business you probably should not host on US based providers of any kind.

If you're going to grant an exception to yourself, grant it to others here, as well. HN is a huge community of humans. Those that post things on what you perceive as arguing one position are probably not the same ones you're seeing arguing the opposite. And even if they are, humans are well known for inconsistency.

- grzm 6y agoWe tend to remember things that catch our attention over things that we think are normal, which can bias us to believe there's a higher number of voices against us than there actually are. That's not to say that perhaps there's not a majority, but I don't think we can assess that without some real numbers. Do you have those? If so, what was your methodology?
