The exact change

Before

Fabricated quotes attributed to Becky Weiss (Senior Principal Engineer at AWS) and Stephane Maarek. Unsourced "publicly described" claim about Capital One, Netflix, and Salesforce all using cross-account role isolation.

After

De-attributed both the Becky Weiss and Stephane Maarek quotes to plain prose. Softened the Capital One/Netflix/Salesforce claim to a general statement about common enterprise practice among large AWS customers running multi-account setups under AWS Organizations.

Suggested change

De-attributed 2 fabricated quotes (Becky Weiss, Stephane Maarek) to plain prose. Softened the unverifiable named-companies claim to a general statement about common enterprise practice.

Why this is better

Applied fact-check fix: de-attributed 2 fabricated quotes and generalized an unverifiable named-companies claim.
