While in the major cities that have been hubs for traffics forever, such as NYC, LA, London, etc. A great majority of the ROW is still sending traffic to major centers that should remain local.
While it is great to talk about the cloud if the cloud ends up in a focal point like NAP of the Americas or some other IP Transit hub, the reality is that the Internet starts to loose it's redundancy.
We are already faced with service providers that have a tendency to want to "own" the traffic and keep on net what should be offloaded.
The funny thing is that wireless operators have come to begrudgingly accepted this fact and use Wi-Fi to maintain performance.
For IoT the use of MVNO's may be a beneficiary of these cost anomalies. If you think about Kore's acquisition of Wyless and the specific mention of Sao Paulo, Brazil. This is a case in point where IP Transit on traditional systems is costly and it may be that the Kore/Wyless infrastructure provides a local offload.
