I'm kinda curious what would be the cause of these health effects. The only reasonable explanation I can think of is I know there is increased cancer risks living near high voltage power lines. Are these data centers using so much power they are experiencing a similar effect?

Either that or they are doing a massive amount of illegal pollution and that's causing the effects.

Not saying the effects don't exist, just interested in the root cause.
