29 SET 2026 · They built an 80-decibel AI data center next door — and stuck the neighbors with the bill.
In this episode of The Sidebar, we break down how tech developers and local zoning boards are using economic development NDAs to quietly rezone farmland into hyperscale AI data centers — skipping public comment periods along the way. The fallout: dried-up residential wells, falling home values, and utility bills passed straight to homeowners to fund the regional power grid upgrade these facilities require.
We dig into the legal loophole making it possible, who's exploiting it, and what residents can actually do about it. Follow The Sidebar so you never miss an episode. Have a topic you'd like us to cover? Email us at thesidebar@pm.me — we'd love to hear it.

22 SET 2026 · That 65-inch smart TV in your living room isn't just a screen — it's logging what's on it twice a second, all in the name of "Automatic Content Recognition" (ACR).
On this episode of The Sidebar, we break down how ACR works, what tech manufacturers actually own once you hit "Accept" on page 47 of the Terms of Service, and why that private living-room data doesn't stay private. Under the Fourth Amendment's Third-Party Doctrine, law enforcement doesn't need a warrant to access it — they can subpoena the logs or simply buy your viewing profile from a data broker.
We dig into where this data actually goes: how insurers are quietly using screen-time data to adjust health premiums, how HDMI connection timestamps have shown up as evidence in custody disputes, and the handful of settings you can change tonight to lock your smart TV down.
