this entire week has been one single PSA: "the cloud" just means "someone else's computer" and that "someone else" is one of three companies and they don't give a s**t about you

Yes. I've been saying that for years. I think a lot of information technology professionals have been saying that all along. "The cloud" is only a marketing buzzword somebody thought of to sound more romantic and interesting than selling access to the same old "servers" time and again.

Cloud is a term that suggests freedom but is intended to create dependency.
