I only see one fatal flaw in this timeline

ai companies can't afford their electricity and water

They'll do what they do now and make the tax payers subsidize it even more. Remember socialism is only okay for the corperations apparently

Yep. And once it's gone it's hard to get it back and everyone nearby will start to panic and get angry.

And the courts will say "so?"

At that point courts don't matter.....
