Oh, you know what’s really fun about Ellison Panopticon Datacenters of Doom?

AI data centers are creating "data heat islands" that can increase local land surface temperatures by an average of 2°C (3.6°F), with extreme cases recording rises up to 9.1°C (16.4°F). These facilities, which produce massive amounts of waste heat from high-energy computing, impact surrounding areas up to 10 kilometers away, affecting over 340 million people worldwide.

So that’s exciting!

Reported initially by New Scientist, but it’s paywalled and archive links no longer work for me. Archive.org I guess has beef with some backbone provider and I’m caught in infinite captcha hell. 🤷🏻‍♀️

And let us not forget this blast from the past, where Larry said the panopticon is necessary to make everyone behave the way he thinks they should.

A Bruce Springsteen lyric keeps running through my head; Dethrone the dictaphone, hit it in its funny bone, that’s where they expect it least. I realize the song was not meant as a revolutionary anthem, and in context it doesn’t make sense as one, but something about it holds true for this situation.

These are small fragile men, the #EpsteinClass, their egos stretch far beyond their human containers and the things they cannot abide, more than anything else, is to be ridiculed or ignored.

We need to make being a billionaire morally abhorrent, someone you’d twitch your skirts away from. There is no moral excuse for billionaires to exist, and they should not. We should shun them from polite society. And laugh at their outrage.

Hey, speaking of Evil, Ellison and Oracle, Oracle acquired Cerner for $28.3 billion; all the clinical records from 14,000 medical facilities, the CMS contract covering Medicare and Medicaid for 150 million Americans, a federal designation that lets them see health data moving across the entire system, and a commercial AI product selling access to 129 million patient records that launched 13 days before the CMS contract was announced.

HIPAA was supposed to prevent this, but it doesn't. And the contract that governs what Oracle can do with your Medicare data has never been made public.

Full written investigation with every source cited and linked.

As of March 31, 2026, Larry Ellison's net worth is estimated to be around $258 billion, according to Bloomberg, placing him among the world's top three richest individuals. His wealth is primarily derived from his 40% ownership stake in Oracle.

Today, Oracle began executing what analysts estimate could be its largest layoff in history, with reports of 20,000 to 30,000 job cuts affecting roughly 18% of its global workforce.

Employees received termination emails from "Oracle Leadership" at 6 a.m. with no prior warning, marking the day of the email as their final working day.

The restructuring is driven by Oracle's need to fund an aggressive $156 billion AI infrastructure buildout. The company reported a 95% jump in net income to $6.13 billion last quarter.

I need some carpenters and a sword maker with a big anvil. 2026, Make Guillotines Great Again.
