They shouldn't be. One of the issue the sheer size and volume, they're being built based only on speculation not actual need (all the ssd/ram/gpu are sitting in warehouses waiting for these DC to be built — if they're fabricated at all). They're also being built where it's cheap, not where they would be needed (industrial and urban areas) just to save money, externalize costs, and avoid regulations.
