How Canva saves Amazon S3 costs 3 years ago
Yup, we just moved large chunks of our SaaS platform from the cloud to dedicated servers with Kubernetes serving as an internal cloud. Ended up reducing our cost to 30% (70% saved!).
We realized that instead of using scaling for peaks, by having additional dedicated servers available full time - it still worked out significantly cheaper. We also moved a lot of our internal processing to run in specific windows of time where the expected load was low to maximize server utilization in those periods.

You just have to be professional and disclose in-detail with steps to reproduce.
I am really not too worried about this because - I know that corruption and incompetence will ensure this system never comes into place effectively.
On the few occasions that the government has tried to ban certain URLs - its almost always been simple DNS filters that can be bypassed by using Google DNS.
