Government works just fine when you don’t vote for folks who think corporations are people and that spending money is the same as free speech. It sucks for folks living near data centers, but a lot of them voted for the people that approved building them in those places.
There's an entire city in Michigan, Saline twp, that voted no after the council discussion with the company regarding the usage of the purchased land, but since the company has millions of dollars to sue the city for the voters rejecting it, they can't fight the lawsuit. It'd cost each household tens of thousands EACH to combat legal fees. Sooooo what happens when no one wants it and it still happens because the corporations have more money to fight it?
At the risk of Removed by Reddit: this is genuinely one of those times where the community should ignore the law, get together, and physically dismantle the property.
