Agree with all your points but none of those reasons are we supposedly live in a democracy and the vast majority of us don't want these data centres.
Solid response. Most people know what they're really being used for now. Like I don't think I want drones flying around scanning plates or otherwise. I don't want to share the water or power bills with this crap.
