Don’t care didn’t ask
Typical. Caving to the Luddites.
You mean the group of workers who fought for fair wages and safe working conditions and were put to death by the government to protect corporate interests? Hell yeah I’m a Luddite then. Weird that you care more about protecting business interests than you do your neighbors’ well-being
Michael N. What do data centers have to do with fair wages and safe working conditions? We’ll bet you copied that comment straight out of The Communist Manifesto or Das Kapital like a good little apparatchik.
You made the analogy man, not me.
Data centers benefit no one, let them build them in China.
You want China controlling your internet Comrad?
