⚡️ What If a Data Center Sounds Like a Helicopter Outside Your House? Tom-Oliver Regenauer and I dug into the noise coming from AI data centers, many being built close to people’s homes. Residents living near the DataOne USA facility in New Jersey described the constant industrial sound as “a helicopter hovering” or giant airport fans. Imagine trying to sleep with that every night. 📺 Watch the full episode 📖 Read the full AI Data Center Ecology Report 📱 Cut of the data supply to big tech, Go Above — @abovephone Website | Substack | X

Data centers don’t just consume energy—they release all that heat back into the environment. Researchers measured an average temperature increase of about 3.4°F within 1 km of hyperscale facilities. See the “data heat island” research: https://aidatacentermap.org/

Explore Above’s privacy-focused devices. 🎟 Freedom grows through the choices we make and the people we build with.

⚡️ 7 Gigawatts for ONE Data Center On DecentralizeTV with Mike and Todd, I broke down just how massive the AI infrastructure boom is getting. Project Matador in the Texas Panhandle is planned for at least 7 GW of power. For comparison, the global data center capacity I cited for Google or Microsoft in 2024 was around 4 GW. One project is now being planned at a scale that would have sounded absurd just a few years ago.

⚡️When Every Database Becomes One Database I told Oto Gomes why I see platforms like Palantir as a new surveillance paradigm: separate pieces of information—your car, property, relationships, location—can be connected into one investigative picture. Privacy changes dramatically when the question isn’t what one database knows about you, but what happens when all of them start talking to each other. 📺 Watch the full episode 📱 Build your digital life on technology designed for privacy — @abovephone Website | Substack | X

⚡️ 40% of America’s Power For What? On Manova we got into what all this AI compute is actually being built for. I don’t buy that consumers are going to use it all. Planned AI data centers could demand around 200 GW, roughly 40% of today’s U.S. power supply, while AI is increasingly being framed as national-security infrastructure in a race with China. So if this is an AI arms race, why are our power bills, water supplies, and communities footing the bill? 📺 Watch the full episode 📖 Read the full AI Data Center Ecology Report 📱 Stop feeding big tech, Above can help — @abovephone Website | Substack | X

⚡️Less Screen Time, Better Outcomes Two large studies found something worth paying attention to: limited phone use may have some benefits, but once usage climbs past a certain point, the outcomes start getting worse. For students, more time on social media, gaming, and browsing was associated with lower math scores after that threshold. Another study of 40,000 adolescents found a similar “Goldilocks” pattern across stress, sleep, depression, and other measures. This clip is from our webinar, Breaking Out of Tech Addiction.

Linux is not what it was 10 years ago. While Windows and macOS increasingly revolve around data collection, subscriptions, and closed ecosystems, Linux takes a different approach: greater transparency, deeper customization, and real ownership over what happens on your hardware. It’s stable, fast, and capable of handling everyday tasks. From browsing and email to documents, video calls, and creative work. Linux distributions are more user-friendly than ever before. Linux is for everyone, not just for nerds. Read more on our blog, where we dive deeper into why Linux may be worth the switch. https://abovephone.com/above-linux-laptop-vs-mac-or-windows/ — @abovephone Website | Substack | X
