Child labor is inherently exploitative. No matter what standards or culture you put around it children should not be working.

Even if every adult treats the child perfectly there's still psychological damage involved in being a child star. I'd rather a data center get built then have a child suffer from trauma.

    The data center causes pollution and also steals the water from MANY children. This is some galaxy-brain stuff.

    We could save on water and pollution by using children for anything we already use machines for, that doesn't make it right.

    Should we have children toiling in the mines because the mechanical drill uses too much water and emits pollution?
