I agree with the sentiment, but GCP typically isn't the fail over. Most people will start with AWS and fail over to Azure, or start with Azure and just fail into nothing.

To stop using Google you would need to find every app that used Firebase and ignore them, that would be one of the hardest parts. You couldn't use GitLab or other SaaS tools that work out of GCP. You'd likely need to just get offline to avoid their ads.

AWS is the professional one. Azure has Microsoft power. GCP tends to be less well through of. Alibaba isn't far behind GCP. Even a fistful of smaller providers will collectively have double the users/revenue or more It is usually 30% for AWS, 20% Azure and 10% GCP these days.

Not to say GCP is bad, I like BigQuery as much as the next guy, but alluding that it's the fail over or fallback for professional companies is not accurate.
