A more alarming statistic is that just two mining pools, Foundry and Antpool, were responsible for mining 54% of all Bitcoin blocks in the past year.

^ that is nothing new and hardly worth discussing anymore. The size of major farms does not even enter into the equation and has NOTHING to do with your topic...

As for mining - yes I still mine because for the most part, only 2 things should govern that:
Is it legal in your country?
Do you have cheap electric power?

Have you noticed that quiet home miners for Bitcoin have not been produced for a long time?
This is because Bitcoin mining has long since become industrial, and a small home miner no longer has a big impact. If his energy tariff allows him to make a profit, then he will mine, if not, then he will turn off the ASICs.
