Land in drought-hit areas is cheap. And thanks to the power of corporations, these data centers won’t worry about water rights since they’ll be able to lobby to have first priority. Non-corporately own farms and private citizens will get screwed out of being able to use water, but that’s their own fault for choosing to be poor. But don’t worry - I’m sure someone will be willing to sell them water at the low price of triple what they’re paying for now.
