AWS isn't a bullet to bite
The "bullet" in this analogy is AWS's notoriously high cost.
The price charts are all publicly available. Anyone can check for themselves what the costs are.

I had just this scenario yesterday where Google ran out of capacity of NVMe-based N1 hosts in a zone. I was forced to upgrade a large number of nodes to N2 hosts, which cost more (despite their claims about them being cheaper -- the sustained use discounts are lower) and are still in Beta. I just wanted info before I started about whether we should expect to be able to even build those hosts that day and they wouldn'…
GCP seems like its run like a hobby project. Scary af

The channel is the retail space and the landlord just kicked them out. I think this content producer should get a lawyer.
Landlords and tenants have contracts, and there are rules about what and how these are enforceable.

I was involved a bidding war between GCP and AWS where each was offering a healthy six figures in free credits to move our business to their cloud. GCP was offering nearly 3x as many but ultimately I didn’t want to move to a service where there was a chance offerings were going to get the axe with no warning. Their reputation has indeed hurt them — at least in one instance.
What services got the axe with no warning? It seems like for all of the Google ex-products I can think of, they gave advance notice of at least a year.
As someone who has been responsible for large cloud budgets, I wonder if Google is aware that their "support strategy" toward both content creators/contractors and customers across the entire brand has completely ruled out GCP for me. GCP might have great support. They may not have automated bots suspending accounts. They might actually follow the DMCA counterclaim process instead of some weird process on top of it.…

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9374251?hl=en > It’s important that creators always have detailed knowledge about who is claiming content in their videos, where it appears, and what they can do to resolve the claim. That’s why all new manual claims will require copyright owners to provide timestamps to indicate exactly where their copyrighted content appears in videos they claim, and we’ve updated our editi…
They don't care, and they don't follow that policy. Even if that is "just a technical issue", no one cared enough to spend resources to fix their underlying system to reflect that policy.

Is this actually an online course about selling online courses?
Wait, it's not 2008 anymore, this is still a thing? .. of course it is. Ugh. Yes, that was a thing twelve years ago, and apparently it's still a thing today. There was, back then, a nexus of the 'top tier' creators in San Diego. If you were attractive, they'd even mislead you into believing that you're "in the club" with them, in order to get you to buy more of their "inner circle" product. Silver lining, I'm now hyp…
Ultimately I'm trying to gleam information from other successful course creators as I work on my own technical offerings. At the end of the day, it seems a better approach than hoping Youtube doesn't shut you down and continues to throw you scraps from their advertising revenue.
