[Iranian here] Completely agreed. Reminds me of how US banned citizens and businesses in Iran from using cloud infrastructure like AWS or digital ocean, leading to people and businesses moving to the government-sponsored local cloud services, and that made it super easy for the government to block internet access whenever they want without essential services like banking, ecommerce, online taxi booking, food delivery etc being disrupted.

That might have taken days or weeks in historic wars. [Now] you’re doing everything at once.”
