From the cloud perspective Azure has a better privacy pitch than AWS has.
Amazon is currently expanding into markets at such a rate everyone is afraid their market will be next. Microsoft currently is staying in their lane. If someone is going to be invading my privacy I'd rather it not be a direct competitor.
Not always. The devices at the ISPs are basically a local cache. They don’t have devices at every ISP and all of their content isn’t on every device.
But that’s really neither here nor there. I doubt very seriously that even if Amazon (AWS not the retail side) was snooping on customer data - which I believe they would be fool to do so - they couldn’t inspect the video stream to know what was playing where.
Encryption doesn't hide everything. For example, Amazon could estimate the geographical location of everyone watching Netflix and use that information to determine optimal billboard advertisement locations for it's advertisement campaign.
