If you don’t trust it, look up videos on YouTube of people whose water has changed color, or who have terrible noise pollution 24/7 now, or whose rural landscape got completely destroyed and paved over. There is real negative impact on people’s lives, ones who will never gain from tech companies getting rich.

Again, is there anything distinctive about data centers, or this industrial facilities in general?

Why would that matter? They aren't building massive multi billion dollar industrial facilities, they are building data centers. Or are you saying the impacts are justified if it is considered an industrial facility?

I am not sure why the question is relevant to my comment. If it weren’t distinctive, what does that change about it being harmful and unfair?
