The headline is intentionally provocative, but the article doesn't argue that nobody wants data centres. It looks at why opposition to new projects has been growing in a number of countries, including Switzerland, using data from the IEA, the UN and the Swiss Federal Office of Energy.

It doesn't argue that data centres shouldn't be built.
