A few years ago, Amazon chairman Jeff Bezos revealed how he thinks of local PC hardware as antiquated, ready to be replaced by cloud options from companies like AWS and Azure.
Bucha Bull to me.

TBH I don’t think he’s wrong, especially in HIS position.
Namely I think having the flexibility of the cloud is amazing… but NOT at the cost of losing sovereignty.
So when Bezos uses AWS he is actually smart because he remains sovereign. When anybody else though does rely on another system that they do not own for critical tasks then then lose sovereignty and thus agency.
TL;DR: cloud or not, maintain your agency.
