Iceland has a lot of energy, and is cold. Seems an ideal place for data centers (I have no idea if they already do this, I'm too lazy to look). Also Iceland is on a straight line between Norway and Canada, so it wouldn't even be out of the way.

    We don’t need more disinformation centres in the west.

    Yeah, I wasn't thinking of LLMs or anything like that. More of the old data warehouses that I used to work in 25 years ago. Or not, either way, seems like a good way to break up the cable for easier fixes if needed.
