    When the county utility investigated, officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta. One water connection had been installed without the utility’s knowledge, and the other was not linked to the company’s account and therefore wasn’t being billed.

      I believe the only reasonable reaction to this would be to shut down the data center immediately until this is settled. Sounds like massive fraud. Am I expecting that to happen? Hell no.

        fraud? this is plain stealing. The ones who own the data center should go to prison.

        At least shut off both water connections and fine the shit out of them for theft
