alt Hacker NewsI initially thought this was a good idea too until another comment pointed out you'll lose most business or personal customers in offices because they connect through VPN gateways running on those cloud services (especially Azure)

True but the question is if that matters.
I would argue that more often than not it might not. Really depends on the specifics though.
A lot of stuff on the web actually isn't really relevant for all audiences everywhere I'd say. It just happened to be accessible by all, because academics back in the day dreamt of a better open world that didn't really manifest :(
I would sure hope they split tunnel their VPN so all traffic isn't going through the VPN...
i can't access reddit through nordvpn
All my business traffic comes from either our own AS, or from ZScaler's AS
Do many companies really use azure etc rather than dedicated services like zscaler?

Someone accessing a VPN that's in an Azure IP range is going to have a difficult time using half of the Internet.
