[If anyone thinks all those huge data centers they're planning on building are in any way, shape or form for our benefit you need your head examined . . . SC]

President Donald Trump’s announcement of the Stargate Project on his second day in office – a $500 billion joint venture with Open AI, SoftBank, and Oracle to construct AI data centers across the U.S. – set off alarm bells. My spidey sense went haywire. Touted as “the largest AI infrastructure project in history,” it relied on emergency declarations to fast-track development. I explored the risks of this unchecked expansion of digital surveillance in two articles – Dining with the Devils and The Digital Noose highlighting how these energy and water intensive AI data centers collect and store comprehensive data on every U.S. citizen from cradle to grave that can be linked to AI data centers around the world in the future.

President Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK on September 18, 2025, set off alarm bells again as he and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer signed the Technology Prosperity Deal (TPD), a landmark U.S.-UK agreement to advance AI and digital initiatives. Valued at over $200 billion in U.S. investments, including $42 billion in tech alone, the deal was shaped by U.S. tech leaders from Nvidia, Microsoft and others during bilateral talks and a business roundtable. Hailed as the largest commercial package secured during a state visit, it streamlines AI standards, biotechnology research and nuclear licensing.

The key Technocrat players who attended the UK event and their roles were:

- Jensen Huang (NVIDIA): Pledged $13B for AI supercomputers.
- Sam Altman (OpenAI): Committed $6.5B for AI in public services.
- Satya Nadella (Microsoft): Invested $29B for data centers.
- Tim Cook (Apple): Allocated $4B for chip design.

- Marc Benioff (Salesforce): Dedicated $2.6B for cloud systems.
- Stephen Schwarzman (Blackstone): Contributed $118B for tech startups.

Just one week later, on September 26, Starmer announced . . .
