    Right?

    I’m responsible for a bunch of systems in there - inclusibg specialized hardware - and I’m not allowed anywhere near it.

    I’ve seen it once or twice, by special permissin only, and with an escort.

      Exactly this. We’re in places with concrete tank traps out front and retina scanners and guards behind the glass and all that craziness – but aside from the tank traps it’s all second-hand info from one of the 4 people I know - of thousands - who can actually go onsite and get in. If he doesn’t send the change request beforehand, and it’s all approved and whatnot, the guards will NOT enable the door. No tools in/out, no 3rd-party media out, etc.

      Like, really, man, no one’s getting in. I guess that means I get downvotes; I dunno.

      Whoever thought of the meme probably doesn’t work in tech. A brand-new AI datacenter is not going to be left unguarded. Doubly so if there’s government data being stored or processed within it.
