Sounds like a libertarian trope. Their house, their rules.
AWS and all the clouds are too big. They structure prices to milk the most of their captured customers. They all price their products within parity, so on the whole there isn't a huge difference in moving. This also makes a nice natural churn between them. The clouds themselves offer almost no innovation in the computing space.
You know who the real rubes are? Everyone else, chip manufacturers, storage, etc. They all made commodity things using shared protocols and people are just pissing it away. And this sht replacing everything is worse than the stuff getting recycled, hardware, ideas, all of it.

I support regulation when it makes sense, but this situation isn't it. > They structure prices to milk the most of their captured customers. They all price their products within parity, so on the whole there isn't a huge difference in moving. You've got to make your money somehow. And expense structures for various large providers are pretty similar, there's no shady conspiracy here.
