If I were to guess, probably heat stroke due to rising temperatures. Which, if true, would also be worsened by having more data centers

It looks like the rate of searches starts going up around January 2026 though, middle of winter in the northern hemisphere. Unless Australia was having a heat wave? They're probably prone to dizziness anyway being upside down all the time
