Not even close. While water usage and ambient temperature rise might be overblown, noise pollution and electrical grid strain are very much real.
You must live in a place where the electricity bill “service charges” haven’t been raised as a cause of new data centers. In Houston, the service charges have gone up 50 percent in the last 2 years. My bill in the summer jumped from $200 a month to $300.
To far. These people should be arrested.
You're right, buying up the politicians, lying on their applications, the datacenter bros are the worst.
