🇮🇳 Residents near Mumbai woke up to find Amazon building a data center the size of 41 football fields right outside their windows. Locals say nobody asked them, and they're worried about noise, power, and water in a country with 18% of the world's people and just 4% of its freshwater. Hundreds took to the streets last month calling data centers "energy vampires." Amazon says it'll use water-free cooling and its own power supply. The company is reportedly not too worried, since officials expect the protests to blow over. With data centers getting this much grief everywhere from Virginia to Mumbai, maybe putting them in space isn’t such a crazy idea after all. Source: Reuters / Writer: Julie
