Bombs are carefully manufactured with waste products controlled, and products blowing up today’s enemies coming to kill your kids. The demands placed on a local population are moderate and can be adjusted to.
AI center sucks up water and electricity (making it expensive to local neighborhood), pollutes area surrounding it, very quick to setup so neighborhoods have no time to adjust, and product is only marketable to people who are tired of using their brain. To a local neighborhood, it’s a lot closer to “wtf are we getting out of this?”

I would argue the war industry probably has less regulations than other businesses. In the US there are as many datacenters as military bases/arms factories.

Got proof? Because I’m pretty sure military contractors have to explain themselves to senators and congresspeople that got them the contract if toxic waste leaks out of a “secure” facility.
Datacenters on the other hand are corporations using their own money/investments to grab land, congress/senators didn’t ask them to.

the pentagon hasn’t passed an audit in its entire history.
like nuclear waste
And then they have to pay a 10 million fine, but discharging toxic waste saves them 100 million. Very accountable.
Where is this 10 million fine story? I can’t find it.
