This is Russia's way to 1. Strike back at the US for the economic sanctions 2. Strengthen its economy by allowing local actors to develop without competition 3. Ensure that all major networks are within state control. It's non-trivial for these companies to switch storage, and it's also dangerous as that makes them more vulnerable to government snooping.

Not just snooping, but seizure and blackmail... sure would be a unfortunate if we had to remove these servers for a little examination, maybe you can do something for my little friend?
