#2Governments cater to corporations rather than to people. It's an unpopular opinion on here since so many people profit from the industry, however the fact is AI and data centres are seen incredibly negatively by the majority of society and the rhetoric and lobbying practices of the companies pushing for this new age are the reason.

But sadly, I can't recall any news outlet, anywhere, ever publishing such data.
