Original: Amazon Promises More Local Funding and Less Secrecy Around Data Centers

The commitment, reported by The New York Times, suggests the company is responding to growing public scrutiny over how its infrastructure projects affect nearby residents, from water and energy use to local tax contributions.
Why now: Communities and regulators are increasingly scrutinizing the local impact and transparency of big tech data center projects.
