    Swedish sources state its 150 km² flat. He (or well, his company) paid 240 million SEK (~$20M USD) for the property which is mostly forrest free due to elevation. Buying that kind of property for "forestry" sure sounds like a thinly veiled lie.

    Smart move. With the deepening climate collapse (also caused by his company ;-), land in the north will increase in value. Already today, many Europeans are refocusing their vacstion destinations; from the south of France to Scandinavia.

    Probably for a post-apocalypse bunker that can be used as a hunting lodge for poor people before that.

    Yeah... This is the face of a guy hunting humans on that land. He probably got the land there instead of a more private island somewhere remote in order to have lower latency to drones in Ukraine.

    So maybe people don’t want to hear this but as a hunter I have to say this area is likely to become a wildlife disaster.

    If humans are a regular predator and the predator is removed the fight for food resources among the prey species is going to result in a lot of animal deaths and suffering. This will cause ecological devastation to the area, waste meat that humans would have used, and potentially cause other shifts in wildlife that are harder to predict.

    The government, in addition to taxing this land heavily, should procure an easement for hunters to maintain ecological stability.

    If this guy is planning to tear everything down and install data centers out there we should build a rocket and yeet him into the sun.

    Yeeting him out of the solar system takes less energy.
