It is possible to infer the locations if you had a lot of time.

AWS at least in the past use to co-locate with other third party servers in the data centre. And so you if you had such a server you could ping AWS endpoints to triangulate where physically those servers might be.

I'm pretty sure a majority of AWS AZs globally are still not in AWS-owned-and-operated facilities.

At this point I would be quite surprised if they were not majority AWS owned and operated.

Of the ones that I know details about in Europe and Asia, not a single one of them are AWS owned and operated. I'm sure the situation is different in the US, and wouldn't be surprised if they own and operate all of their US DCs.
