    Yeah, you were trying to argue AWS is basically for the NSA and cops. That hilariously false claim is what I’ve been consistently rebutting this entire time. You’re moving the goalposts and continuously have this entire conversation, which is why this is a dull and bad conversation. You didn’t start out arguing that 1% is “substantial.” You made a rather different argument. I never disputed that a contract amounting to 1% of a company’s annual revenues is significant, I disputed that that 1% means AWS is just a cop shop. Because that’s not how anything works.

    You were wrong, and you were making shit up, and you’re moving the goalposts to avoid having to admit being wrong.

      My guy, you’re arguing with yourself at this point. At the least, learn to read your own material before you try to fact check someone.

        I usually do, when the other person in the conversation doesn’t seem like an insincere ass and I’m not looking up an open and shut factual question I already know the answer to, like “is the majority of AWS’s business from cops and the NSA?”

        And I was off by like half a percent because I skimmed, and that half a percent doesn’t actually make your point for you. We’re not arguing because you have no arguments
