There's no regulatory consideration involved as far as I can tell. On Slack at https://influxcommunity.slack.com/archives/CH8TV3LJG/p1688949312868899?thread_ts=1688623563.430219&cid=CH8TV3LJG https://influxcommunity.slack.com/archives/CH8TV3LJG/p168894... they explain the shutdown thus:
> "The region did not get enough usage or growth to make it economically viable to operate, so it became necessary for InfluxData to discontinue service in those regions."
So it's worse than you believe. Yes, the handling is a scandal for all the reasons you say. But they weren't even pushed into this by some regulatory issue; it's pure cost-cutting.
