tomshardware: Georgia residents are suing OpenAI and their county officials, saying they secretly pushed through a $20B data center.

They brought the case under Georgia’s racketeering law, which lets them seek triple damages, alongside fraud and conspiracy claims.

The suit says the county development authority’s chief signed an NDA with OpenAI in October 2025, almost 9 months before the public announcement.

The authority then approved the deal under an agenda reading only “Project Gateway,” and commissioners allegedly skipped 2 required hearings when changing industrial zoning.
