Many data centers will move north into the Nordic countries where the climate is colder and there is a lot of hydroelectric and wind power. Canada and the Nordic countries will end up building a lot of data centers in remote areas where they are less visible.

At the same time, the more the US government acts to support data centers, the greater the reaction will be against them. It is the classic situation where the more the government does, the less people will like it.

The question is who will service massive data centers in northern Québec or Norwegian mountains in winter.

They will have to be robotized to a large degree. And the few humans necessary will have to be very well paid. The social cost is real.
