Story by Jason Knowles, Maggie Green, February 17, 2026

"Data centers are moving in. They power everything from #StreamingServices to #ArtificialIntelligence, but critics say they are noisy and can jack up your #ElectricBills.

Now, the I-Team and ABC News are finding that more than 3,000 data centers are already operating nationwide, with at least 1,000 more planned. Some are in the #ChicagoIL area."

@jxself

The #streamingServices (forced) trend is widely documented as wasteful for #environment and favours entities with large capital to serve such easily from many #datacenter locations. See our recent toot. Also, because they reject #internetAnonymisers the household is trivially #surveilled and thus easily inflenced/led by #advertisers and/or #repressive forces. Includes being targetted for not streaming enough, or switching off the stream at the "wrong" time, etc.
