Remember that Stargate SG1 episode where they find themselves into a huge underground facility that is under attack by external forces. Jack O'Neill accepts to pilot one of their drones to help defend the complex from a wave of bombers and is infuriated to learn that the attacker's bombers were manned while he believed they were unmanned.

spoiler

At the end it turns out the facility was actively poisoning the entire planet, threatening to wipe out all life and the "attackers" were simply the people of the rest of the world trying to stop it.

That is what the Amazon data center is to me.

I need to watch it. I've never seen it. I'm too young I guess.

You mean don't tempt you with a good time?

A key thing there is that the bunker dwellers were at least eugenicists if not outright Nazi analogues and they were deliberately killing everyone outside as untermensch, it wasn't just a callous side effect of their facility.
