'Virginia Is For Servers' Declares DC Pro-Data Center Bash; Some VA Residents Fume: Report
- On Saturday, Protesters interrupted Data After Dark, a Pro-Data Center Party held at PubKey in Washington. The event drew about 1,000 RSVPed guests celebrating American computing.
- Organizers promoted American computing to counter what they viewed as unfounded opposition to data center expansion. Data centers have become contentious due to massive demands for electricity, water, and land across the country.
- Demonstrators shouted 'Thank you for using all of our water!' and 'You're killing the world,' interrupting the stage. Attendees responded by chanting 'USA!' as security escorted the Protesters away.
- Some Northern Virginia residents stated the event 'actively mock' their communities. Jonas described the party as a response to what he termed 'bipartisan psychosis over data centers.'
- CNN data guru Harry Enten recently noted 76% of Dems and 60% of Republicans oppose building data centers in their neighborhoods. Jonas suggested similar celebrations could eventually be organized in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
