I Worked At A Google Data Center: What I Saw Will Shock You. - More Perfect Union

[TexasTowelie]

Taxpayers in Texas and Virginia are subsidizing data centers by handing out over $1 billion a year to tech companies. More than 30 states subsidize data centers and Big Tech with massive tax breaks. And while CEOs have promised thousands of jobs, they haven't materialized.

These centres take a lot of energy and water, which I think the tax payers are going to pay for as well. Double taxes for the pleasure of hosting a billionaires toy.
