Injuries and unpaid labour rampant at data centres built by Google and Microsoft
</a>
</h5>
<p class="card-text line-clamp-3">Europe’s data centre industry is booming. But this comes at a cost: a five month investigation by Investigate Europe, Follow the Money and seven media partners found squalid living conditions, unpaid wages, and exploitative employment practices on construction sites – including on those run by tech giants like Google and Microsoft.</p>

<p dir="auto">A kiko of sugar can ruin a thousand kilos of concrete. A thousand kilos of concrete is a small part of a wall. Anyone trying this will immediately be caught because they'll immediately see something is wrong and at best you'll sabotage a tiny part of a single wall. You'd set back construction maybe maybe by a day and for that you'll be tried for terrorism or something</p>
<p dir="auto">All in all very impractical</p>
