      If only people actually read the ORIGINAL Rolling Stone article instead of just regurgitated secondary headlines for clicks.

      Because despite their own headline being similar, the actual article contents indicates that the cause is mostly from agriculture and drought. Measurements from the water leaving the datacenter are even lower than the measurements from some local wells a decade ago.

      Technically the headline is right, it’s not a lie, there is a link between the datacenter and adverse health effects… but the context surrounding it is dramatically different than what they want you to assume.
