That's why we're working hard to poison the water and replace the oxygen with unbreathable CO2. It's hard work, but we're getting better at it every day. Soon, terrorism will be nothing but an archaeological curiosity for visiting extraterrestrials.

You may have noticed that it is increasingly difficult to use currency or transfer funds as a result of actions to control transfers. Try taking $10,000 out and using it.

Ditto on internet controls. Remember PRISM?

Whatever. A theoretical one. You name it. From whatever a political angle you are watching, you can probably notice quite a number of them in the world. By definition a regime is considered a tyranny once it starts doing harder to keep the power at whatever the costs than to improve well-being of the people. In the past people could oppose peacefully or violently, today they can't. My hypothesis is that a society where anybody can easily communicate to anybody secretly at any time will become an effectively self-regulating organism making cancers of organized crime and tyranny nonviable. Special services like the NSA or Roskomnadzor say they need to be able to eavesdrop and/or block everything to fight the bad guys, I believe this probably is a mistake (or a lie - everybody just wants the One ring and fighting the darkness is just an excuse to keep it) so whatever an app they try and fail to have/block has my sympathies. Once an app or whatever emerges able to stand the ground long enough and easy enough for everybody to use we'll see.

TOS can be amended. This seems more like the sort of thing you hire CloudFlare to handle, not AWS. Why does this service need to operate from "dozens of subnets"/"14 million IP addresses"?

Ok, but what about other Amazon-customers who serve Russia?
