yeah what I meant wasn't that any of the providers we see today will disappear, but the model under which they are forced to operate will look completely different. I'm not suggesting that Amazon/Google will be kicked out of Europe that would be silly. But they would be forced to a) pay their taxes, and b) implement guarantees that a packet will never leave a certain jurisdiction. This is so different to how cloud works today that you might as well call the cloud dead.


Hm, or maybe someone smart will figure out a way to mangle software-defined networking into a solution.


> implement guarantees that a packet will never leave a certain jurisdiction

It's already the case, no? My company recently contracted G Suite with a guarantee that the data stays in Europe.
