I wonder if this will make the world realize how datacenters could become prime military targets in the near future

[–] eestileib@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 week ago

Iran sure knows

I mean, we're discussing a military strike on a datacenter today...

What future? Data centers have been prime military targets for years, since at least Israel used AI for Lavender in their genocide.

I think this is why the US military is planning to move their datacenters into space.

I think it might be to make them more resistant to civil unrest, but sure, that too.

There's also a new movie about it, made by the same award winning journalist who wrote this article
