                                                 Keep Your Eyes on The Data Center Brouhaha

            All around the country there is growing push back over the requests for data centers. More and more developers are filing for zoning, land acquisition and construction permits to build these monstrosities which developers say will further enhance the integration of AI as it becomes more and more ubiquitous in our society.  But residents are not buying it.

In some circles, data centers are being touted as the greatest thing on earth, more technological progress to make our lives better. But on the other hand, alarm bells are going off all around the country. You need to perk up and take a serious look at what is happening and learn what this means for us as a society whether one is planned for your community or not.

 Most of the hype about data centers revolves around artificial intelligence or AI. We are being told these data centers will house huge servers to process information that supports AI. This is not entirely true. While these facilities will house servers there is much more going on than merely storing data! These facilities will be key cogs in the infrastructure that supports a global surveillance, monitoring, tracking and invasive control/compliance system that makes George Orwell’s Big Brother look like primitive by comparison.

We are deliberately being kept in the dark about the real purposes and functions of these massive buildings. We are being assured that we will not be able to live in the modern era without these facilities. Usually, the descriptions are benign, they do not reveal the ultimate purposes for these centers. If you want to get the base explanation about what these centers supposedly will be used for go to: https://www.forbes.com/sites/technology/article/what-is-a-data-center/. Keep in mind this is merely fodder for the gullible to divert our attention from the nefarious  uses these centers will be used for in the near future and beyond.

Right now, most of the controversy and resistance to these centers center around environmental issues. Local residents are concerned about the large swaths of land these centers require, they fear the centers will alter their native landscape and the land use within their communities despite the fact a lot of these centers are being planned for rural areas.

Residents are also alarmed over water usage, the massive amounts of water needed to cool the servers, the huge energy demands the centers require, the increased costs to residents/consumers, the increasing heat generation, the noise, the pollution and drains on existing power grids these centers will cause. But this is merely the tip of the iceberg. Check this out: https://www.environmentalhealthproject.org/post/the-dangers-of-data-centers

 Environmental issues are just the beginning. What most environmental activists and concerned citizens are not aware of is, the massive threats these centers will pose to our current way of life! As I stated earlier, the data centers are the linchpin of the global panopticon, the place where the data from the surveillance from the Frock cameras, license plate readers, street level facial recognition cameras, Starlink satellite tracking,  drone monitoring, bio-digital interfacing, real time surveillance streaming , consumer and financial transaction monitoring will be sent, stored, processed and analyzed in real time, so the powers who shouldn’t be can continue to keep tabs on everything we do while we are confined to high tech digitally controlled reservations.

 I use the word reservation because soon and very soon we will be confined to specific areas, which will require permission to move beyond the restricted areas to navigate into another zone or area; which will be just as surveilled and monitored as the one we are leaving. Only the oligarchs and their minions will be allowed unfettered passage.  Us peons will have to toe the line. There will be no physical checkpoints with Gestapo goons asking for our papers, it will all be done digitally!  Think of it as cross between the hyper surveilled Gaza and the Chinese digital social credit system which the powers who shouldn’t be are trying to replicate here and now! https://www.aclum.org/publications/ai-powered-surveillance-is-turning-the-united-states-into-a-digital-police-state-now-is-the-time-to-stop-it/

Please don’t scoff and roll your eyes, what I am sharing with you is real. The data centers were just the preliminary steps in the process and infrastructure.  https://hackmag.com/security/digital-panopticon We are moving ever so assuredly into a digitized AI police state unless we wake up and resist!
