You lost me there. Most "e-waste" is, IMHO, produced by inefficient software that is occupying a whole server farm where an efficient implementation will run on your router and still have enough resources to spare to brew a coffee. See thepiratebay, they disabled, IIRC, more than half of their servers when they switched to open tracker.
