Data-center projects can be real despite parallels with Foxconn

Dzieza says data centers are being built and can make sense in some cases, unlike the Foxconn LCD-factory project in Wisconsin. Even so, he found more parallels between the projects than he expected.

These are individual perspectives, not a measure of consensus. Source material stays in its original language.

Original excerpt

I did not expect this to feel so similar to Foxconn initially, because unlike the Foxconn project, the data center buildout is real and at least theoretically can make sense in many cases. These things are actually getting built — unlike an LCD fab in the middle of Wisconsin. It turned out that there are more parallels than I thought.
