I would recommend banning Netflix first while you are at it:

    data centers providing Netflix streaming services would consume around 370 TWh per year (Kamiya 2020) [1]

That's not counting all the client devices power consumption while watching it.

While BTC uses 87 TWh. [2]

Link 1 only references that claim to debunk it, mentioning that estimated energy usage from all datacenters in the world is less than 370 TWh.

True, it says "this value is 1.8 times larger than the 205 TWh estimated for all of the world’s data centers combined, which provide society with myriad other information services beyond just streaming Netflix videos."
