Cloud centers as kinetic targets

State and proxy actors are treating commercial cloud data centers as legitimate kinetic targets when they believe those facilities support rival militaries, causing real outages and physical damage. That transforms neutral commercial infrastructure into frontline assets and forces companies and governments to rethink location, defense, and legal exposure. — This reframes cloud infrastructure from a technical/operational asset to a geopolitical one, with implications for corporate strategy, liability, military policy, and international law.
