Google just bought your Minnesota vacationland for a data center

The state needs better guardrails on data center development before rolling out the red carpet to Google and others while touting benefits.

Mystery surrounds #RichmondVA-area home tied to firm behind $1.2B Army #Texas tent-camp contract

WASHINGTON (AP) — "When President Donald Trump's administration last month awarded a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to build and operate what it says will become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex, it didn’t turn to a large government contractor or even a firm that specializes in private prisons.

Instead, it handed the project on a military base to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small business that has no listed experience running a correction facility and had never won a federal contract worth more than $16 million. The company also lacks a functioning website and lists as its address a modest home in suburban Virginia owned by a 77-year-old retired Navy flight officer."

... #Albus’s record aligns with a model of governance where corporate and defense-industry progress is prioritized over public accountability. -- Legal #secrecy. That sounds like the #opposite of #transparency whether it's legal or not. All of the hidden is now becoming revealed. Sounds like Sunday.
