La décision d’Amazon de couper l’hébergement de WikiLeaks est très mauvaise pour l’image du business des « nuages », dit Joseph Reger, le CTO de Fujitsu :
The provider [Amazon] simply cut off cloud services for WikiLeaks—that is, its server capacity, which made WikiLeaks inaccessible on the internet.
(...) Many potential customers for cloud computing services will, I fear, have been paying attention and will now be forced to reconsider whether they can afford to make their IT that dependent on a third party. Cloud-computing’s reputation has been damaged. For IT, this is the real tragedy.
