> cloud data centers are operated by companies including Alibaba, Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google and Microsoft.

A quick google search about market share reveals: “AWS has 32% of the market, followed by Azure at 19%, Google at 7%, Alibaba Cloud close behind“

Why is Alibaba listed first in the list in the NYT article if American data centers together have 58% market share?

Alphabetical is one of the more neutral ways to list names and companies.
