If their wastewater is clean and goes back into the usable water supply straight away then that's fine. But if it flushes into drains or evaporates then you might have to wait a while for it to come back as fresh rain - and land in the right places to fill up the reservoirs.
It might matter how they're designed/regulated and whether they keep the water clean and usable - which I assume costs more of other resources.

they also pollute water at some point, and the water comes out hotter, and then the datacenter needs to consume water from the area to cool down thier servers. they dont give any water back.
