.@Amazon is *far ahead* of any other tech company in storing sensitive data—it has 204 FEDRamp authorizations, compared to Microsoft's 150, Oracle's 34, Salesforce's 31, & Google's 27.

It & other tech co's gave $250K to Congress, then won contracts to privatize gov data storage.
They’re part of a new #CloudIndustrialComplex that lobbies legislators in Washington, DC to prioritize cloud storage for sensitive data, resulting in a huge migration of sensitive data to private cloud firms like Amazon, which get multi-million contracts to store the data.
