It’s a pity as some of its services are frankly among the best, and I depend on them.

Even back then, it was a pretty obvious move for any movie villain. Or do you mean you actually bought into the reliability promises of cloud providers thinking downtime would not exist anymore?

It always overfelivered. during its first decade, If anyone read any of the books from its founders, papers, stories related to the company and them it seemed to be the new "non zero day" infrastructure, however the longer the company alive is the more it feels just like any other. Unrelated: not sure what is going on on HN since a few months but almost all comments I get to write get automatically downvoted, even little things that no one should really care much about.
