It should be anyone’s choice to use or not use cloud services, such as AWS. I think you will see an exodus of businesses from AWS to private data centers or other providers. This will hurt Amazon’s business.

Sure simple web hosting is easy. Companies that depend on the rest of Amazon Web Services will have a large tech debt to develop these other services from scratch. It’s hard enough to go from say AWS to GCP. For example, I know one decent-sized organization that took 2 years, and the services are more-or-less similar. Now what’s the time to spin up your own services?

Who the hell is proposing that? You are posting on an almost completely proprietary system that can never be cut off. The database can be replaced, the webserver can be replaced, but they will never need to be replaced.
