There's a very realistic future where small towns scattered all around the USA (and other places, but there's gonna be a shit ton of it here) will find themselves stuck with half built or buit-but-empty datacenters when this bubble bursts.
I think those cities should seize them from the bankrupt shell companies that will eventually own them on paper, and operate them as public utilities. Ideally, as part of or alongside public broadband utilities.
@mayintoronto @owen yes, running these things as a cooperative, on top of or in addition to compute as a public utility would be ideal
