      you’d be surprised, poorly secured construction sites are a prime target and it only take a couple of guys, bolt-cutters, maybe a jack and a pickup to load up a couple of coils

      And returning for a second go speaks to opportunists rather than professional(non-meth) thieves, although I wouldn’t rule out inside-job by the contractors

          You’d think but sometime these things are left behind nothing but a single chain-link fence, some have a local security company do a periodic patrol every few hours so easy to get in and out in between, but yeah other have multiple cameras & permanently stationed guards

          Would have to know more about the specifics of this site before making a judgement on the perpetrators, but the ghouls building data-centres love to cut corners so would be surprised if they did so on site security
