Did you find the researching the energy usage of data centers come pretty easily, or did you have to go down rabbit holes because maybe the companies aren't so transparent about this?
It was easy in a sense because the work done in the Paul + Anne's whitepaper was immensely helpful! But, it's also just extremely hard to find data round this, which made it hard. So, all in all, I knew where to start, but it was hard to get data and concrete statements from certain providers (especially Alibaba!).
