What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A community activist in Maryland gathered over 25,000 signatures to oppose the construction of a $5 billion data center. The project was planned for the site of an abandoned shopping mall that has been vacant for 24 years. The activist, who was approached by the Party for Socialism and Liberation, advocated for the site to be converted into an indoor trampoline park instead of hosting the AI data center.
