Acetaminophen during pregnancy

Laws against new data centers

Various US states are working on laws to regulate or prohibit the construction of new data centers. The constructors try to evade public regulation and even public awareness until it is too late. At that time, the data center typically has the right to demand all the electricity and water it needs, which can far exceed what is actually available in the place. That can be catastrophic.

Note how plutocratists threaten states with being labeled as "closed to new business" if they take any steps to stop businesses from wiping the floor with the public there. The public needs to learn to laugh in the face of anyone who advocates that plutocratist view.
