"The datacenter" doesn't generate billions. The computations performed inside might, but almost never is the datacenter owner the same person running the server

"The datacenter" doesn't generate billions. The computations performed inside might, but almost never is the datacenter owner the same person running the servers inside. The owner is just leasing space; selling electricity and cooling to a third-party company. Their margins (ie: taxable income) are thin because competition is high. A landlord's taxable income is not determined by his tenant's income.
- causal 6mo agoYou are being pedantic to pretend you don't understand. It's tiring and unproductive. At the end of the day, people are paying money to utilize the servers within the datacenter. That money is revenue. That revenue ought to be taxed by the state.
