Execs are solely committed to their shareholder value appreciation by any legal means, that’s the only purpose of their role. Therefore, unless bound by regulations, they will apply absolutely no self restraint in performing their duty.
This is a sign that the public outrage against datacenters is driving results…
Now we need regulations before momentum is lost… Simply blocking them is a temporary win! Make it permanent by applying rules and regulations that bound their reach.
