Botched redaction exposes Google data center water and power use

Original: Improper redaction reveals Google Data Center water and electricity usage

A poorly redacted document has revealed the water and electricity consumption of Google's data center in Lincoln, Nebraska, figures the company and local officials had kept confidential. Residents and officials in Lincoln say the disclosure raises more questions than answers about the project's resource use. The slip is fueling renewed debate over transparency around the environmental footprint of large data centers.

Why now: People are discussing the accidental disclosure of resource usage figures that Google and local authorities had deliberately withheld from the public.
