Water is the most precious resource on this planet. Are these "Data Centers" actually using this water. Or is it being, siphoned off, stored and stolen?☹️☹️

Yes it dose increase the electrical bill of surrounding areas, yes it creates constant noise that’s potentially damaging to both animals and humans alike and may even possibly impact plant life in the surrounding area for a few kilometres based off observations of pollinators such as birds avoiding such centres, yes even on a closed loop it will still guzzle a hell of a lot of water and even more power which means more gas plantations to make up 1/3 of the grid of Australia’s power these data centres are predicted to need, yes ai investment is currently akin to the space race and may not even be profitable as large scale tec companies are currently lossing billions trying to figure out a productive use for it, yes it will likely end up a foreign owned infrastructure just like the other 80% of Australia’s vital resources but Let’s Just Build It Anyway!!! 😸💀

Data centres should be banned, the community will pay for it and makes oligarchs richer and more powerful. Governments are weak as piss.

look it may destroy the community, use up the water, drive energy prices through the roof, cook the planet and destroy creative industries, but at least some tech CEO will get very rich.

unrelated fun fact, but adding sugar into cement when its being mixed makes it completely unusable.
