Three Amazon engineers say they were investigated after backing Seattle's data-centre limits. The AI build-out backlash is now bipartisan, and internal.

Amazon has allegedly retaliated against three software engineers who spoke out in encouragement of regulations on data centers in Seattle.

The software engineers filed a complaint with Seattle’s civil rights office accusing Amazon of illegally retaliating against them for expressing their personal political beliefs.

Five Amazon employees testified at Seattle City Council meetings where officials sought feedback on a year-long data center new construction pause.
