i.e. no people inside. First off they are toxic environments to work in, what with the noise from A/C units and the huge collections of computer servers. Second, for almost all things that happen in a data center, they don't need any human hands on interaction. Installation / replacement, network upgrades, and certain operations require people to enter and service equipment, otherwise everything else can be done remotely. Today there is even a move to simply over provision a data center with "hot or cold spares" where extra servers are installed... and if another server fails for some reason, the functions that server was doing are simply moved to the spare. This can go on until the entire set of servers are retired and replaced.

The number of "high tech" jobs provided by a date center is actually pretty minimal.

They consume a lot of electricity and, usually, water for evaporating cooling ( even if the servers are not directly water chilled, the coolant or air exchangers eventually need evaporating cooling ).

In my view, if you really want fission nuclear power... go to Canada or Alaska, in a place with almost no human habitation, build nuclear power plants and huge data centers, use the available water source and try to reclaim as much of it and return it to the environment ( stream or river ) at the same or nearly the same water temp as when it was extracted. Pay the people that work there an enormous amount of money to live there and do the jobs we cannot do via robotics or remote operation.

should be prohibited from doing so. This is not to say that offering to build roads, provide water or sewer or similar state functions should be allowed - as long as these would serve other users.

Similarly, if a company selects a state then that state's cities should be prohibited from competing with each other in like manner.

In any case, any commitment by states and local governments should be made only based on specific publicly announced commitments that earn the benefit and are not paid until after the company has met its commitment.

As to bringing business to the United States, only the federal government should be allowed to offer benefits - and the same rule applied.
