• Another N.J. town bans AI data centers after proposal to build one is withdrawn (nj.com subscription) — Millville is highlighted as one of several New Jersey towns that have already banned data centers, a move now echoed by East Greenwich after residents opposed a proposed facility there. The story explains why neighbors pushed back, citing power use and environmental concerns, and how their organizing led officials to cancel the project and outlaw future data centers.
