You underestimate their willingness to just blanket the surrounding area in herbicide. They don't actually need their water to be potable.

Please don't plant invasive plants in vulnerable ecosystems
So they're building data centers in vulnerable ecosystems and destroying their water sources?
Bruh, this is just making things worse, bamboo is a invasive plant species
Right? Release the giant asian hornets! Oh shit where did these murder wasps come from.
Get a fucking gas powered pressure washer full of liquid culture of this shit ( https://www.ecurrent.com/food/meet-the-mushroom-stronger-than-sidewalks-banded-agaricus/ ) and spray the building from the back of a pick up truck while wearing a hazmat suit, cheaper than you'd think clean room suit with a skin tight Russian surplus gas mask retrofitted with a modern Honeywell filter using a gas mask adapter.
Anything invasive that invade via rhisomes like Elephant Grass. If you want to really fuck with them you could do sugar cane. You could do blackberries, raspberries, blueberries.
Native black rasberries, in north america. Fuck their shit up with native plants please.
Find the tallest hemp plants, preferable tree size, and throw their seeds around the data centers.
Ah yes, grass, the natural enemy of the giant construction machines
Only in the south. And only if you use the American species of bamboo.
Its a datacenter not a golf course. They're going to bulldoze the entire lot anyways.
Warning, don't plant bamboo underneath the restrained torsos of Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, O'Leary, etc. as they grow so quickly with hard rigid points that they can break through a human torso in 3 days.
Bamboo is beginner shit, if you really want to cause trouble, try japanese knotweed. They will never be able to get rid of that!
What are you, a British railway?
You're thinking of buddleia
People, people, please. May I suggest a warm cocktail? It's always worked in the past.
The government would hate it if you happened to lose a sizeable device capable of spontaneously combusting near a data center.
I've got my bamboo seeds on order. Best case scenario...wild vicious pandas show up and tear everything down in their search for more bamboo. /s
What you REALLY REALLY REALLY SHOULDN'T DO is to introduce Pharaoh ants into or near data centers.
Because...

The also reproduce through clonal budding. The build very small colonies (a few hundreds to thousands of ants) and when stressed due to anything, they'll move their larvae and raise one of them into a new queen to form a new colony. This means Pharaoh ants are practically impossible to eradicate once they get established. They're also VERY QUICK to move into climate controlled environments. And YES they DO cause severe damage to electrical equipment, and for some GODFORSAKEN SATANIC REASON, they FUCKING LOVE ELECTRICITY and ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT!
Source, I had to get almost 10k in electrical work done because after hiring a shitty pest control company, their treatments weren't focused on the biology of pharaoh ants (they didn't even bother to ID them), and by stressing the population, the EXPLODED the population. The ants then decided that my electric panel and several outlets had become their SWORN enemy, to the point it became a real fire hazard as a seemingly endless series of ants came to die by burning up between some junctions.
Where can i purchase these ants?
Well they have basically a global distribution: https://urbanentomology.tamu.edu/urban-pests/ants/pharoah/
But if you need a quick fix, I know a guy who knows a guy.. hint hint nudge nudge...
Can you cross breed them with fireants?
According to @TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world, they turn into fire ants when they reach an electrical junction. While the exterminator was playing chess, the ants were playing checkers.
"Checker-mate"
- The fire ants formally known as Pharaoh
This is even more genius.
We now need to prepare a tactical guide to raising and maintaining a hobby ant farm.

Horseradish spreads quickly underground, and it's ugly. A friend of mine destroyed his backyard with a small patch of horseradish. Within a few years, his backyard was unusable.
Horse radish sounds really nice to have though.
Bamboo is invasive in north America. Don't
So are the data centers
Two wrongs do not make a right.
Also let's be honest memes like these are simply Internet Warriors pretending to do shit but we all know they are doing nothing outside of online activity of posting memes and bitching on social media.
Yeah but the bamboo is going to damage more than just the data center.
I'm not even clear on how the bamboo is supposed to damage the data center.
Datacenter owners can find resources and expertise with their imaginary money.
General public, even under sane administration - probably don't.
Please don't plant bamboo in non-native areas. It's much better to find a protected native species and plant those instead :)
Maybe black raspberry? Native to much of North America, edible for humans and wildlife, covered in thorns and spreads like a motherfucker.
Also seedy, but delicious.
if its a ai datacenter that guzzles water like it has no limits,am planting lots of bamboo
it also strangles basically any native plant it spreads close to, lowering local biodiversity and lowering soil quality. and it grows extremely quickly. not a good thing to plant more of, no matter how pure your motives.
*notices comm name*
uh... fuck you op...?
