    They are legitimate military targets, they are acting as comms relay servers for military strikes/operations against Iran, and are very likely also being used to do threat analysis / kill chain assignment tasks.

    This is what you get for becoming part of the military industrial complex, tech bros.

        If you have a pension you or your employer pay into you are also one of those shareholders via your pension fund.

    Are these actually meaningful availability zones?

    They should hit us-east.

      They are, for the Gulf countries from which the US launch most planes to attack Iran.
      Iran’s plan is to make the Gulf countries throw out the US forces.

      Due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, both affected regions have experienced physical impacts to infrastructure as a result of drone strikes. In the UAE, two of our facilities were directly struck, while in Bahrain, a drone strike in close proximity to one of our facilities caused physical impacts to our infrastructure. These strikes have caused structural damage, disrupted power delivery to our infrastructure, and in some cases required fire suppression activities that resulted in additional water damage.

      Translation: servers got turned into charred scrap.
