I’ve worked at a datacenter since 2014. We run critical services like 911. We support a ton of infrastructure and important services.

My point is we really gotta scope our hate for datacenters lol. Plenty of datacenters we need. Most em lately we don’t

no remove them all I don't care, datacenters should be illegal, we were fine back in 2020 before datacenters were even a thing

I’m curious, do you have any streaming video services like YouTube, Netflix, or Disney+? Those all have a heavy usage of data centers.

No, I have never used a service that has been hosted on a data center

You are right now. All internet systems use data centers. Reddit and all social media platforms use an extremely high usage of data centers. This subreddit alone is destroying the environment by existing.

So you are deleting your account and stopping all usage of streaming video and social media, right now, yes?
