I don't get it. Why use Google at all? There are tons of better things out there.
I personally prefer using their API and tools over AWS. They seem more sensible. Azure is horrible.
GCP offers inter-region networking and more sensible firewalls and routers.
Pricing is pretty comparable to AWS, slightly better for instances, slightly worse for storage.
Storage performance for persistent SSD seems a little better than EBS GP2.
Cheap local disks on any kind of instance.
I, for one, wouldn't ever want to operate a firewall with enough rules where I'd have to be concerned about such a thing. Eek.
For just VMs with the fastest CPU, storage, networking and the easiest billing compared to other major clouds, GCP wins.

I provided the documents in ~30 hours because that's when I saw the email. There was no further communication from Alibaba. I assumed everything is ok, but in 2 weeks my account was terminated.
