X Uncovers Chinese Bot Network Aimed at Data Centers

Posts from investors and creators state that X identified a network of roughly 200,000 inauthentic accounts, several hundred of which targeted U.S. discussions on AI data centers and energy policy. The accounts are described as pushing claims that data centers raise household electricity costs. Accounts including those of Beff Jezos and Nic Carter called opposition to data centers a Chinese influence operation or useful idiocy. The posts treat the X safety disclosure as confirmed.
