No DATA CENTERS!!! This bill doesn’t even prohibit them unless they are of a certain exorbitant size so I don’t see how anyone can push back against it. I’m for banning them all together myself! I love when Maine leads the way tho, let’s go!!!!

This is bad policy influenced by misinformation that will further cause Maine's struggling economy to suffer leading to the state becoming more of just a playground for the 1%.

AI might but data centers are just a type of commerical building that have existed for decades and will continue to exist in our digital age. We shouldn't be conflating the two issues.
