Bay Area Data Center
Teen Rails Against Project in Epic City Council Rant
Published
Plans for a new data center in the San Francisco Bay Area have residents in revolt … but it’s made a star out of one teen who’s going viral for her epic city council rant … telling local officials to wise up.
Sadie Cisneros, a high school junior from Pittsburg, went scorched earth at a recent city council meeting … rattling off all the reasons why she’s against the data center being built in her community.
She cites a bunch of scientists who say data centers are bad for people, natural resources, animals and quality of life … alleging city council members are corrupt and “killing us.”
The data center was reportedly approved last year, but residents say they only recently found out about the plans, which call for the center to be built on a shuttered municipal golf course.
Avaio Digital is the company behind the project … they’re calling it “Perseus” and they claim it will have a 99 megawatt capacity. Avaio Digital claims the data center will be mostly air-cooled and use recycled water … but residents like Sadie aren’t happy.
Sadie posted her rant on TikTok and it has over 1.7 million views … while another video, showing her going to the city council meeting, has 9.2. million views.
No word what she’s planning to study in college … but it’s looking like Sadie has a future as a lawyer.
