Around 100 activists breached a construction site leased to Microsoft as part of coordinated actions across 15 European countries An estimated 100 protesters pushed onto the construction site of a Microsoft data center in Amsterdam on November 6, 2026. Their demand was simple: stop building giant data centers, at least for now. The action was not a lone outburst. It was one piece of a coordinated wave of protests across 15 European countries, all calling for a moratorium on large-scale data center construction. The demonstration took place in Amsterdam’s Sloterdijk/Westpoort area, where the facility is being built.
