X identifies foreign actor behind fraudulent accounts spreading anti-data center messages

A social media investigation revealed a bot farm of around 200,000 accounts on X involved in influence efforts related to U.S. AI and energy policies, with some posts falsely claiming data centers increase electricity costs and favor private operators. Data centers are a contentious issue in the U.S., amid concerns over environmental impacts and energy use, leading to recent state-level actions such as New York's freeze on new AI data centers. While some political figures promote welcoming data centers for economic benefits, others warn that expansion could lead to job losses and environmental harm.
