Democrats’ midterm victories have handed the tech industry a more difficult political landscape, with data centers emerging as an unexpected flashpoint.

Senator Bernie Sanders and a wave of newly elected Democrats have renewed calls for datacenter moratoriums in the days following the US midterm elections, adding fresh momentum to opposition against the multi-trillion-dollar buildout of artificial intelligence facilities.

SpaceX is moving to turn Starlink Mobile into a major US carrier, directly challenging AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile.

Democratic lawmakers wasted no time after midterm sweep, warning Big Tech executives to prepare for subpoenas and signaling new investigations into President Donald Trump’s business circle.
