A Georgia family is fighting to protect their home amid an escalating dispute tied to the rapid expansion of data centers in rural communities. In Coweta County, they say a powerful utility company is threatening eminent domain to make way for infrastructure needed to support new data center development, raising concerns about property rights and fair compensation.
The controversy comes as similar projects spread across states like Georgia and Utah, where residents warn that large-scale data centers could strain water supplies, raise utility costs, and reshape small-town communities. While supporters argue the facilities bring jobs, investment, and help the U.S. compete in the global AI race, critics say the environmental and economic costs could outweigh the benefits for local residents.
