There was a cool browser extension back in the days that changed the word "cloud" to "someone else's computer" in the articles on the internet. It changes perspective and eliminates a lot of headache this way.
This reframing can be super useful in getting corporate types to understand that storing stuff in the cloud isn't a magic solution, and that it comes with its own problems (especially in terms of data governance stuff).
Even on weather articles?
Especially on the weather articles. Heavy someone else's computers with the good chance of rain.
