This is not meant as what-aboutism, I don't think you've gotten to the root of it. The US is largely responsible for the Internet (and for the original internet protocols). The Internet is a corporation (ICANN), run by corporation

One datacenter doesn't use appreciably that much water; and we don't know what cooling paradigm they're implementing. If you want to know about water, you have to ask. So far, datacenters haven't broken the grid ( cough

Coronal mass traveling at a higher speed "sweeps" what's before it. You can see the spiral shape, and you can probably figure out that the stuff is slowing down as it moves outward. Watch this occasionally for a few months an

It deserves scrutiny, certainly. But this: “It’s like they brought people here from all across the country, just to be here [in Washington DC]...” What about the politicians, and all of the people hired to work for the politicians? Looks li
