The “Cloud” refers to the Servers on the Internet.

Your data and settings are backed up on the internet server. If you delete files on your machine, you have the ability to reinstall from the internet. Likewise, if you get a new machine, you can migrate your settings and data from “the cloud” rather than copy-and-paste with removable drives.

You say “popcorn clouds”.

Don’t know what that means.

They are multi-billion dollars of expense in the Server Farms
physically located on Planet Earth.

I was making a silly joke - ignore me!
