Indeed. Or charge them fees for their power consumption that would pay for the construction of additional generating capacity. This is how it is with any new expansion of industrial demand, there's going to be a need to build up the infrastructure to match.

Community opinion is often a bistable state. If 70% of the userbase has opinion A and is constantly downvoting and browbeating anyone who says anything positive about opinion B, one would naturally expect the userbase to soon be 80% opinion A.
