Who are these idiots that keep developing software and tools for psychos like these? No amount of “just doing my job” absolves them.

From the article:

Utah State Senator Jerry Stevenson (R.-Layton) got into a heated confrontation with a reporter from ABC4 who was covering the reported harassment of his business, which soon turned physical after he slapped the reporter’s phone out of his hand.

Stevenson is one of the lawmakers on the state’s Military Installation Development Authority (MIDA) who approved the 9-GW data center that’s slated to generate and use more than twice the power that the entire state consumes. However, there is swift backlash against his vote, as there have been calls on social media to boycott his business, J&J Nursery and Garden Center, and ABC4 reports that some of its employees have reportedly been harassed by disgruntled community members.
