Not to be a doomer, but they say that even if Amazon completely stopped doing their store they’d be just as powerful because of Amazon Web Services (AWS). Virtually every website runs on it. We’d need another hosting service to grow to their size. I don’t know much about who else is out there, but we probably need competition before there’s no free speech on the internet. So, like, yesterday we need another alternative. I’m still down to do this strategy though.

True. Might find this article interesting, a Gizmodo (tech blog site) journalist set up a computer to block AWS IP addresses, the Internet became unusable.
