My issue wasn’t with confusion of data centres, it was that they underpin every aspect of life which is false.

Most of my hobbies aren’t underpinned by data centres. The relationships I build with people, the outside activities I do…most things I do aren’t underpinned by data centres.

Bit of an issue getting people to understand that around here though. I guess their lives are.
