Evidence Archive
The archive supports a bounded claim: concentration and lock-in risk already have an observable record. It is not a prediction that every centralized service will fail, and it is not a feed of every technology incident.
Three collections
- Outages — incident chronology with source, impact, uncertainty, and follow-up.
- Lock-in — mechanisms, affected layer, exit symptom, and verification test.
- Claims — a public statement placed beside observable evidence and status.
Evidence discipline
Every record separates occurrence date from publication date, observed fact from inference, and primary source from commentary. Corrections append a revision note. Disputed or unknown facts remain visible instead of being forced into a confident narrative.
The existing Chinese essay archive at vonng.com/cloud is a seed source, not the database itself. Records are extracted, normalized, linked back to the original, and given an English abstract before publication here.
Material service incidents recorded with event time, scope, source tier, accountability, and uncertainty.
A mechanism-first catalog of technical, economic, contractual, identity, and operational lock-in.
Public provider claims compared with observable evidence, applicability, and current status.
