These big tech datacentres suddenly popping in Finland (Google) and now this one in Amsterdam seem to be contradicting with the EU Digital Sovereignity course that was outlined recently. Also, the impact to the environment is not a factor to dismiss. Interesting.

P.S. If the technology takes so many resources from us and the environment, do we really need it at that cost?

    No we dont, if such technologies are needed to aid humans in medical research, improving our daily lives, transportation infrastructure, etc.,then be my guest.

    However you can see its being used against all of that, its being used for mass killings, mass surveillance, mass manipulations, creating fake realities, manufacturing of consent and hyper-consumerism.

    So FUCK THIS TECHNOLOGY
