    “maintain community confidence in the rapidly advancing technology.”

    Absolutely nothing any government could say would bring me confidence in the water-, noise-, heat-, and light-polluting environmental catastrophe that is data centres.

    They produce fuck all jobs, are major targets in war and I’m sure will be targets for extremists too.

    Entirely gutless move by Labor. There’s hundreds of other sectors that could be invested in that produce tangible benefits both technologically and socially, unlike this planet-ending technology.
