That's a good point. It'll be interesting to see if red states can put good guardrails on data centers to have the positives without the negatives, while blue states do like they always do and make regulations that do more harm than good except being good and making the bureaucrats rich.

For example, I'd bet blue states force data centers to make their own power using solar or wind, stating that the rated power capacity is enough, knowing that the true power production throughput is a lot less. But red states might force data centers to produce more than enough steady power, so at least the criticism of data centers being power hungry wouldn't apply to citizens of red states.

I dunno if red states can probably regulate other issues like noise pollution and water consumption of data centers.

And that's during the short period that data centers are up and running. I expect much of the AI hype to die down (it seems to already be doing so) and many data centers be vacant, perhaps a lot of them not even finished building.

I have seen and heard the Turbines of these crypto center .

Its a nightmare if you live near where they dropped one .

In NC, an entire GOP Nc county board was voted out over the
noise and water mess created by the center and in fact China was found to be involved .

the crypto center is quickly being revamped to quiet the racket and foreign links removed.

.
Your billionaire Golf pals should be exposed too.
Donnie let’s build a data center turbines next to your palace.
Lead by example

Perfect setting for monkeywrenching. Not suggesting, just predicting.

Most of them will never be finished.
