As data centers face growing public criticism, a new focus has emerged on the factories that supply them. While data centers are drawing concerns over their environmental impact and automation’s implications, factories producing servers and equipment are encountering minimal opposition. These factories are seen as more favorable, promising job creation and lower resource consumption.
Experts suggest that targeting the supply chain could become a strategic approach for activists opposing data centers. However, the limited capacity of current organizers leaves manufacturers largely unchallenged, facilitating their expansion to meet the demands of the data center market.
