It's predictable though. People who run nodes on AWS or Azure or similar should take note -- you're not doing Bitcoin security/integrity any favors, unlike people who run full nodes on their own servers, with multiple ways to access the internet.

This was my problem with all the “The future is in the cloud!” talk a few years ago. It went into my ears as “The future is trusting a third party to host your infrastructure!”
