    How about the power they use, driving up prices for the rest of us? How about the destruction of the computer components market so that regular folks can’t buy an affordable computer that doesn’t suck? How about the jobs they destroy while replacing humans with computers that do inferior work? You’re missing so much about why they’re hated. They do like 10 kinds of major societal and environmental damage while only meaningfully contributing in specific contexts. Would it be better if they didn’t waste insane quantities of water? Yeah, but they’d still be terrible.
