Authentication servers outside the country are blocked. The entire citizenry, including businesses, loses access to online banking and financial processing.

The "cloud" is just somebody's else's computer.
If you don't have 100% control of it, don't trust it.
It has become much easier, and cheap, to run you own "cloud". A single point of failure is always stupid.
