Curious: how do you feel about AWS, Azure, GCP?

You work for Cloudflare, so is your comment more a "we're no different" statement than genuine curiosity about their opinion?

Genuinely curious.

CF: No criminal convictions I know about. No reason to distrust yet. Most controversies seem to be about providing services to political organisations.
GCP: Earth Engine is quite good, but Google have multiple criminal convictions. As a repeat offender they should be avoided at all costs. They are just so exceptionally good at manipulating people, markets and academia it's genuinely terrifying.
Azure: Microsoft still don't take security seriously. They're just a bit bumbly, not really smart enough to be as terrifying as Google.
AWS: Pretty useful, annoying to use, distrust because I can't bear Amazon's use of dark patterns in consumer products.

Same way I do about any large corporation, I don't trust them.

You mean Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet?
Cloudflare sits in the middle of a vast amount of web traffic now, offering easy global payments and skimming off the top of that is going to be very profitable potentially.
I don't trust Cloudflare, the larger they get the bigger the abuse potential becomes.
