- "We pissed off a lot of people": Giant data center plan cut 50% amid protests
A major data center project in Utah, initially planned to be nearly three times the size of Manhattan, was reduced by 50% due to local protests over water drainage, rising electricity bills, and environmental risks. Residents paid $15 to submit comments opposing the transfer of 1,900 acre-feet of water to the project, which is led by venture capitalist Kevin O'Leary.
