Comment on Using floci to emulate Cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, Azure)parent

Comments

I don't think IT has the same marketing requirements or stringent name vetting policies found for example in pharma, or car industry (Mitsubishi Pajero vs. Montero in Spain comes to mind [0]). After a quick internet search looks like "floci" is colloquially the word for "pubes" which doesn't sound really vulgar, more impolite?

Perhaps a play on words? pubic cloud... public cloud...
