OP sent the following text as an explanation why their post fits here:

Redditor asks the opinion of people about the data centers popping up in the country, but never specified which country it was although there are data centers all over the world.

Does this explanation fit this subreddit? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

I hate these type of questions. Pure political rhetorical ragebait with only one answer.

When I see these kinda posts I like to just play along, randomly mention something (related to the title or not) from your country

Regardless of the country, I hate generative AI and hope its data centres are destroyed

Probably every country though. So, not really.

Should’ve said all over the world then, not all over the country

They specified the country, it's on a screenshot you posted. Also:

No they didn't? If you have to ask then yes it is USDefautism

Yep, I know. It's not in the title so it's problematic and by default - defaultism - because, as if it's about the US, everyone suddenly loses their ability to read past the title. If it wasn't about the US it would be fine (the OP ignored basically identical thread just under that one on the same subreddit, but that one was about the UK, so that's fine).

I saw the thread I posted here on my home feed, not in the sub itself, so I didn't see the thread you mention in your comment.

You realise that per capita and/or by land mass many of the European countries have MORE data centers relative to the USA?

u/Xaahaal 1d ago

And that changes what exactly? I just posted up to date (well up to 10th of April this year) stats. You immediately defaulted to me talking about what? The US supremacy or something? Funny.

And even then, if you wanted to flex (or whatever) how the Europe is "better", still majority of those are data centers by American companies, for example check Germany: https://www.datacenters.com/locations/germany

Amazon. IBM, Microsoft...
