Is it still capitalism if the costs of a data centre are charged to the public, but the profits are for a handful of private investors?

Of course it is.. Its Socialism if the Data Centre has to give any of it back to the people..😷

Private profit, public expense. F**k that.

That is the very essence of capitalism.

Capitalists who oppose this will say it's "Crony Capitalism" or "Corporatism." But the truth is, this is always the result of Capitalism, and the purpose of a system is its outcome.

Nope
