AWS actually has a service for this - Snowmobile, a storage datacenter inside of a shipping container, which is driven to you on a semi truck. https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/

They do not!

> Q: Can I export data from AWS with Snowmobile? > > Snowmobile does not support data export. It is designed to let you quickly, easily, and more securely migrate exabytes of data to AWS. When you need to export data from AWS, you can use AWS Snowball Edge to quickly export up to 100TB per appliance and run multiple export jobs in parallel as necessary. Visit the Snowball Edge FAQs to learn more.

Why would they make it convenient to leave?

That's only for data into AWS though, not data out
