Two Memphians sue XAI over Southaven data center noise
Two Memphians have filed a lawsuit against xAI, alleging that continuous noise and vibrations from a data center construction site in Southaven, Mississippi, are disrupting their lives and reducing property values. This lawsuit follows a similar one filed in June by other Southaven homeowners. SpaceX has not yet responded to inquiries regarding these legal actions.
Two residents from Memphis have initiated a lawsuit against xAI, alleging that constant noise from the company's data center construction and gas turbines in Southaven, Mississippi, is significantly impacting their quality of life and depreciating their property values. The plaintiffs claim that the disruptive noise began in August 2025 and has intensified over time.
This recent legal action mirrors a similar lawsuit filed in June by homeowners residing in Southaven, Mississippi. These plaintiffs also report disruptive noise from gas turbines and construction activities, in addition to experiencing vibrations from the site. ABC24 Memphis has attempted to contact SpaceX for comment regarding both lawsuits, but the company has not yet issued a response.
