I’ve hosted on AWS for ages. They don’t do this. We didn’t pay the bill for two months once because the owner of the card left. No problems. This was a small spender outfit.

For those building projects aimed at internal audience, local companies were preferred for tax or legal reasons, and most of those working on international projects quickly emigrated to more sane countries.
