The problem is that corporations and others are trying to force it down our throats in every single place as possible in their maddening quest to get a return in their investments.

They are a tool but they aren’t really like any other. They’re only rarely useful and have massive negative externalities.

Respectfully disagree. It’s because of the systematic insistence that we need to build data centers to support a demand that doesn’t exist.
Same thing would happen if corporations lost their minds over hammers and insisted we had to build hammer factories everywhere and sell hammers to stirr your coffee.
