The main reason for this continued investigation is because data centers are destroying rural communities by siphoning natural resources, contaminating and consuming water for surrounding communities, driving up power costs, creating noise and light pollution, destroying habitats, wildlife, animal health, human health, and impacting fertility, as discussed in one...

Erin Brockovich is sounding the alarm on the impact data centers are having on rural communities' water supply. “These big data centers are coming into rural areas of farmland where a lot of people are on their own well water.” “They report a reduction in water pressure. Their water is just dripping into a bucket.” “They’re very concerned that they could lose their aquifers, and they could literally be out of water.” As AI drives a massive data center boom, many rural communities are raising concerns about depleted aquifers, falling water pressure, and growing strain on local water supplies. Rural families should not be forced to compete with massive corporations for access to clean water and other essential resources. Erin Brockovich

To investigate further, we downloaded data showing confirmed smart city locations in the United States from the Global Covenant of Mayors and overlaid it with Erin Brockovich’s confirmed and community-reported data center locations. Texas was the first state we examined. And we superimposed aquifer maps onto the Texas data. What we found was revealing. Hyperscale data centers appear to be concentrated in areas with healthier aquifers, while areas with struggling aquifers show little to no smart city or data center activity. She then examined Georgia and Virginia and identified what appeared to be clusters or triangulations of data centers surrounding smart city locations. Texas displayed the same pattern. Major hyperscale data centers are being developed in places such as Odessa, the Panhandle, and Wichita Falls, locations that are outside major smart city zones. She emphasizes that hyperscale facilities also exist near smart cities, but argues that the pattern of placing many of them in already resource-strained rural regions suggests there may be another purpose behind their location. This leads to Maria’s theory: She argues that hyperscale data centers are being built in rural areas outside planned smart cities, even though smart cities appear to have their own clustered data infrastructure. These rural facilities consume water, increase electricity costs, create light and noise pollution, and gradually make rural communities less livable. As resources become scarcer, residents may be pushed toward urban areas where those resources are prioritized. We then turned our attention to the triangulation pattern seen around smart cities. To explain it, Maria introduces the concept of edge data centers. Edge data centers are smaller facilities located at the edge of a network. They often handle simple processing tasks while larger hyperscale facilities handle more complex workloads. Maria thinks it’s not a stretch to assume that these edge facilities may be operating alongside hyperscale facilities outside smart city networks.

🚨THE ONE REAL CONCERN NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT AI data centers are being forced into communities under the banner of “progress.” But one issue alone is enough for the people to protest: TONAL NOISE. That constant industrial hum. The low frequency vibration. The mechanical drone from fans, cooling systems, transformers, and generators running day and night. This is not “background noise.” This invades homes. It disrupts sleep. It agitates the nervous system. It destroys peace, property value, farm animal reproductive systems, and quality of life. There is a reason militaries have used sound and tonal noise as psychological torture. Now imagine that same kind of relentless noise embedded permanently in your community, serving Big Tech, AI, surveillance, and data harvesting. No tax incentive is worth that. No corporate promise is worth that. No county commission has the moral right to trade away the peace and health of the people for an AI data center deal. Tonal noise alone is enough. The people have every right to protest before the hum becomes permanent. Byron Donalds and Jay Collins are PRO AI DATA CENTERS. The ONLY Candidate standing up and saying HELL NO to these massive community impact projects is Paul Renner. Renner is a HARD PASS on AI Data Centers. Listen...here's why

VIDEO: Texas Gov. Abbott calls for regulations on data centers, contrasting previous stance FOX 4 NEWS ... AUSTIN, Texas - Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Wednesday called for sweeping regulations on data centers to be passed by the legislature in the 2027 session. It's a change in stance for Abbott, who previously worked to make Texas the epicenter of the data center buildout. In a letter to the Public Utilities Commission of Texas and the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Abbot laid out his ideas to hold data centers accountable and ensure the costs of their growth are not passed on to taxpayers. Abbott called for new centers to add power generation to the state's power grid while paying for their own infrastructure costs and connection to the grid. The letter also calls for the mandated use of closed-loop water systems and annual reporting on electricity and water use by data centers. The governor is also calling on lawmakers to repeal sales tax exemptions and "other outdated or unnecessary incentives" for data centers. Data centers would also be required to consider the communities by reducing their impact through measures such as reducing noise. "As Texas continues to welcome innovation and investment, we must ensure that growth strengthens our people and their quality of life without placing undue burdens on Texans and local communities," Abbott wrote in the letter. In the letter, Abbott directed PUC and ERCOT to submit a joint memorandum by July 17 outlining actions they've taken to prevent risks and added costs to taxpayers because of data center development. At least one lawmaker applauded the move as state Rep. Helen Kerwin praised Abbott for "protecting Texas ratepayers." "As these projects are proposed across Texas, we must PROTECT our water resources, rural communities, and state parks while bringing greater transparency and accountability to the process," Kerwin said on X. Kerwin has come out against the explosive expansion of data centers in the past, calling for full impact studies before development. "Economic development matters. Innovation matters. Jobs matter. But our water and our power are not negotiable," she said in February. Cal Jillson, a political scientist, tells FOX 4's David Sentendrey that Abbott's recent comments are at odds with his past stance on data centers. "The Governor has worked very hard to make Texas the epicenter of the data center buildout," Jillson said. ERCOT delivered a warning in April that Texas power demand could quadruple by 2032, mostly driven by data centers, population increases and oil production. Jillson also believes Abbott, who is seeking re-election this November, sees the potential for political backlash for other Republican campaigns. "He is sitting on $130 million, he’s gonna win easily but he knows that there are some races down ticket. Maybe even the U.S. Senate race, certainly the Texas Railroad Commissioner race, which have weaker Republicans that he needs to worry about," Jillson continued. "He’s got to try to be sure that Republicans hold the Texas House and Senate by large margins. So that’s what he’s trying to do, just position the Republican Party more than himself so they’re not taking blame for the data center buildout." The move comes as communities and local leaders push back against the rapid expansion of data centers in the state. Last month, Hill County officials placed a moratorium on new data centers in their county. The move was met with a lawsuit from developers. Officials rescinded the moratorium last week in response to the pressure from the lawsuit and issued a checklist for new large-scale development in the county. The Angelina County Commissioners Court advised residents to contact state lawmakers during Tuesday night's meeting after hearing public comments about a proposed data center located outside the Lufkin city limits. "We have no authority to do a moratorium or to stop any type of development in the county," Angelina County Judge Keith Wright said. "The Texas legislators have consciously limited what we can do, and they've done it on purpose."

Famous Yellowstone Actor Mo Brings Plenty speaks at his city council meeting to oppose a proposed Data Center The proposed data center is the Piqua project in Ohio. It’s a hyperscale data center that is estimated to use up to 2 MILLION GALLONS OF WATER PER DAY There are also multiple more proposed data centers in the area, including one by Amazon Web Services Yellowstone Actor Mo Brings Plenty urges the city council to do the right thing and say no because of water concerns. He says he knows they’re in a tough position, but they ran for that position The amount of data centers being built in America is way out of control

In the next 15 years, data centers are expected to add an additional $160 billion to grid costs in the US Estimate say electricity rates for average households will spike by as much as 70% Data centers are projected to triple their share of US electricity demand in the next few years The main driver is the explosive growth of data centers built by Big Tech companies like Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Google, OpenAI and more to power artificial intelligence Places like Northern Virginia already has over 200 data centers with massive new ones planned. Utilities are striking secret proprietary deals with Big Tech companies. These are hidden behind NDAs that shift much of the infrastructure costs onto regular residential customers Just in the PJM energy market of 13 states covering 65 million people, data centers were responsible for 63% of last year’s record 800% spike in capacity prices (This is INSANE) Residential customers in places like Virginia and Louisiana are being forced to subsidize billions in new power plants and grid upgrades for data centers. An Examples of this is in Louisiana, Meta’s data center deal leaves the public potentially on the hook for half or more of a $3–4 billion power plant Again, without major policy changes, average household electricity bills could rise by up to 70% over the next 15 years due to data center demand. There is only one real way we can stop this, we must create a separate customer class for data centers Maryland and Oregon have already passed laws doing this Forces data centers to pay for the specific infrastructure they need instead of spreading the costs to everyone else. More states need to do the same Ban secret sweetheart deals Require full public disclosure of all contracts between utilities and Big Tech Prohibit deals where data centers pay below the actual cost of service Make data centers pay the full cost of new power plants and grid upgrades Change regulations so utilities cannot socialize the cost of data-center-driven infrastructure to residential and small business ratepayers This needs to be done immediately

ABC News investigated and found more than 3,000 data centers are already operating nationwide At least 1,000 more planned Residents near data centers are seeing much as 50%+ increases on their electric bills “ABC7 has also been covering public meetings over proposed data centers and there are questions about water use and the environment. The i-team in ABC News studied this private company's data center map and found that there are at least 4,302 data center projects across the U.S. Large and small. Of those, 3,038 are currently operational with another 1,203 either under construction or plan for construction. 61 have acquired land. In Illinois, there are 164 operating data centers with another 81 planned for construction. The largest state project plan is in Yorkville. It would be 2 gigawatts and according to the ABC7 data team would use the same energy that would power approximately 1.7 million homes more than every home in the city of Chicago.”

David Friedberg: Michael Burry’s Datacenter Math is Wrong “I actually think Michael Burberry's got this wrong.” “What Michael Burry is saying is that all of these hyperscalers have extended their depreciation schedule or the useful life of their data centers by roughly 2x, which cuts the operating costs in half when they report it in earnings. And so it's making their earnings inflate.” “So he's claiming they're cooking the books. Google first made this change in Q1 of 2021, where they said the servers are now going from 3 to 4 years. Separately in 2021, Google took networking equipment from 3 to 5 years. And then in 2023, they took it from 5 to 6 years.” “And so this is a result of this effort where they went in and did an analysis. So what happened?” “What happened in the data centers is that the data centers transitioned from being primarily data storage and data transfer systems, where you would use hard drives and RAM and memory to store data and then transmit it back out, to being data processing centers because of the AI boom.” “So as AI became more important in the data center, more of the dollars that are going into data centers were allocated towards chips from data storage, which initially was hard drives.” “And then suddenly, when you put these processors in to process the data to do AI, the majority of the spend and the majority of the energy is going towards the processors.” “I made some calls and I checked around with some other friends, and everyone says the same thing: that these 7-8 year old TPUs and GPUs that are sitting in the data centers are still being used and they're being used at 100% utilization.” “So that actually justifies and validates the depreciation schedule being much longer versus shorter.”

MoistCr1TiKaL comes out strongly against data centers in recent video and ponders if they're making people sicker due to hoarding clean water "AI data centers are actually the boogeyman..a scourge on this planet and a stain on civilized society..no normal ppl with functioning frontal lobes want data centers in their community, it is bad for them" "I've been getting conspiratorial..I was reading something that someone was sharing about like when a AI data center came through, and the impact it had on their water, cause that's a very common thing" "I'm not fully bought into it..but it's an interesting theory..what if the reason there's been seemingly so much more sickness, like it feels like ppl are getting sick more frequently now and a wide variety of illnesses just seem more common..what if AI data centers are hoarding all of the clean water..what if all the clean water is being diverted to the AI data centers and the normal civilians are just getting the sludge runoff..I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility..they are evil enough to do that" (Via penguinz0 on YT)

The OFFICIAL preview with Erin Brockovich “Some data centers can use up to 30 million gallons of water a day. They’re utilizing water from aquifers and municipal waters, and people with their own wells are reporting that their wells are running dry. They’re having to dig deeper because of these mass amounts of water that these data centers require to stay cool. Communities can handle the truth. They will ask questions, they will sit at the table, and they will work with you. But they can never, ever handle the lie. There was no community input on this. You slid it under the table. You did it in the dark of the night. We didn’t even have a chance. We didn’t even have a voice.”

One of the biggest Driving Forces in the Future for Jobs, are Data Centers. They are big, strong, bold, and Money Machines for the State in which they are built. Governor Kathy Hochul, for political reasons, has terminated all Data Centers being built, or to be built, in New York State. These Companies are now being sought in Alabama, Florida, Texas, Arizona, and many other States. Both the Taxes and the Jobs amount to LIQUID GOLD! New York State has made a terrible decision. All of this Income, and other Benefits, will be going to Red States, and some Blue, where Data Centers are sought as Cash Cows, with Lower Taxes and Record Setting Jobs. They must pay for their own Water and Power, and any leftover goes back to the State and local Community. Data Centers are tremendous WINS for the States and Communities that are lucky enough to get them. New York should change its Policy, IMMEDIATELY. The Radical Left Dumocrats must not be allowed to cause us to lose Data Centers, AI, and all of this incredible new Technology, to China, and other countries! President DONALD J.

The Radical Left Dumocrats must not be allowed to cause us to lose Data Centers, AI, and all of this incredible new Technology, to China, and other countries! President DONALD J.

There is a new massive 300 megawatt hyperscale AI data center proposed by a Netherlands-based company being put right next to a new medical and rehabilitation campus for injured, abused and recovering animals The data center would be only 1,100 feet away This new huge data center would impact the animals because of constant noise, vibrations, light pollution, heat and other disruptions. This would be especially bad for stressed, recovering, or sensitive animals The AI data center is claiming by the company to produce no increase in ambient or background noise levels at the property line or nearby areas They say “The facility will not exceed current background/ambient noise in the area” I wouldn’t believe this for a second, we’ve all seen how loud these hyperscale AI data centers are The location is in Alabama and the Greater Birmingham Humane Society is who’s speaking out because this data center is being proposed right next to their new proposed animal treatment facility This should not be allowed to happen

REPORT: Nearly 50,000 people in the Lake Tahoe region are now being told they could lose access to electricity because power is being redirected to AI data centers. Many Americans are starting to fear this is in their future, too, as data centers are being forced onto communities nationwide. What’s happening in Tahoe is no longer just a dispute over utilities. It’s becoming a warning sign for the entire nation as homes, tourism, local economies, and basic human needs are pushed aside to make room for the AI buildout. NV Energy reportedly plans to stop supplying the region after May 2027 because the power is needed to fuel the rapidly expanding AI data center boom. Residents now face collapsing property values, fears their communities may no longer remain livable, and the horrifying realization that ordinary Americans are increasingly being pushed aside so the AI race can accelerate. Critics say this keeps happening because data center developers and their political allies are being treated as more important than the people already living in these communities. The deeper fear spreading nationwide is becoming impossible to ignore: if Americans can lose power so AI infrastructure can expand, what will communities be forced to sacrifice next? ZeeeMediaOfficial's explosive report uncovers why growing numbers of Americans are starting to believe entire communities be traded away for the AI race.

We took Erin Brockovich's map of every data center in America. Then we laid the nation's aquifers on top of it. We noticed they're not building data centers where the land is cheap. They're building them where the water is. Farmers near these facilities say their livestock have stopped falling pregnant. Residents say the humming never stops. And the projects arrive under NDAs, so most towns don't know until the ground is already broken. The question isn’t where they’re building anymore. It’s why they’re building where they’re building. Tonight, we think we can answer that question. We’ve been covering the data center issue in great detail on this broadcast, and for good reason. It’s a serious problem in America and worldwide, and it’s one that is uniting people from all sides of the political aisle because, guess what, whether you are a conservative or a liberal, you have human rights that enable you to have access to basic survival needs like water, which was given to us by God, not by the state or Big Tech, by the way. Erin Brockovich joined the data center fight recently. She launched a site including a map that shows data centers either completed, under construction, planned, or community reported, likely due to all those pesky NDAs in place stopping us from knowing they’re coming to our area. But the public isn’t stupid. So Maria thought she’d do something a little bit different. She created a series of maps using Erin Brockovich’s data center data, then superimposed aquifer maps onto those maps, then superimposed smart city locations onto those maps. What Maria found was pretty mind-blowing and, she says, lends credence to her theory that those in charge are purposely making rural areas unlivable for the purpose of pushing people into smart cities, where they will be under constant surveillance and on a short leash.

Some communities are stopping massive AI data centers in their tracks. Others are getting steamrolled. The difference often comes down to a handful of specific tactics most people don’t know about until it’s too late. Kristen Meghan👩‍🔬🐻 and Tammy K. Clark have spent months helping communities fight back. From permit filings and noise ordinances to environmental pressure points that can derail projects before construction even begins, they break down the strategies that are actually working. If a data center is being proposed in your area—or could be soon—this is the playbook you need.🧵

Hasan Piker convinces three voters in Denver driving by to vote for Melat Kiros before polls close at 7PM "What do you guys think about the data center that just popped up over here?" "Yeah! That random one? We hate it!" "Alright listen, Diana DeGette, who's represented this district for 30 years in congress, is saying nothing about the data centers because she's in the pocket of corporations. Melat Kiros is gonna fight back with a data center moratorium. She wants to put a stop to these data centers being getting popped up left and right. You guys are stuck between a data center and a Purina factory and that's not good for these little guys back there." "It's poison, yeah." "Do you have a ballot in your house right now?" "I have three."

David Sacks: Everything Kathy Hochul Said About Datacenters Was a False Accusation David Sacks: “These data centers become the scapegoat for all of the angst that people have about AI. Everything she's saying there is a false accusation on datacenters. So let's just go one by one.” POWER: So she's saying that they eat up all of the power. Well, yeah, if you connect to the grid without producing more power and you force datacenters to compete with residential ratepayers, then yeah, you could drive up utility prices. However, if you do what Chamath said and let them build behind the meter, then they bring their own power. And that's what the president has advocated for since the beginning of his administration, is let the AI companies become power companies. So that is the way to solve the energy problem or the utility problem. LAND: Then, she's talking about eating up land. The reality is these datacenters are a model of land use efficiency. We have a ton of land in this country, obviously. NOISE POLLUTION: The supposed noise pollution, that's largely made up. That can be dealt with. You obviously don't want to put these things right next to a residential area, but create a little bit of distance, and it's fine. WATER CONSUMPTION: The whole water consumption thing is largely a hoax. Modern datacenters recirculate the water. AIR POLLUTION: One final thing just on the point that Hochul is making. She said it created a lot of pollution. Natural gas, which is how most of these data centers are powered, is one of the most clean burning sources of power that we have. “When you compare economic impact to all these different things, datacenters are honestly one of the best things we could be building as a nation.”

We can only trust X 🚨 META/ Facebook planning to build data centers in China, store their data in China, and then GIVE THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT ACCESS to the data “In this document, Facebook is talking about making Chinese user data available to the Chinese government because they're going to store that data in China. Is that correct?” “Correct” “When you store that data in China, Americans who exchange messages or other information with Chinese Facebook users, that would mean the Chinese government could get access to the American data as well, is that correct? “Through the POP servers? Potentially.” “And Facebook was willing to take that risk?” “Yes. There was a lot of discussion about this and ultimately yes.” “I mean, this is, this is extraordinary. This is exactly contrary to what Facebook has represented for years here. They're willing to build data centers, store data in China. They are willing explicitly to give the Chinese government access to it”
