How much time before someone figures these infrastructures make very good targets for vandalism? I risk I will see datacenters destroyed by mobs and other actors before I die.

Why would you think they make good targets for vandalism? A major data center would have very restricted physical access.

If Palestine Action can break into RAF bases and destroy Israeli weapons factories, what makes you think a data center will be better defended?

Palestine Action spray-painted some stuff. They didn't "destroy Israeli weapons factories", that's rather hyperbolic.

You should look them up. They forced the closure of two factories owned by Elbit Systems and forced Barclay's Bank to divest from Elbit through sustained sabotage actions. They were actually incredibly successful at disrupting the Israeli genocide machine, which is the real reason for their proscription - not for their latest action at Brize Norton, as the government and mainstream media would have you believe.
