❗️Kevin O’Leary’s massive AI data center project in Utah is running into another obstacle: the people who live there. A group of residents and a nonprofit have filed a lawsuit challenging the proposed Stratos Project, an AI campus that was originally planned to cover roughly 40,000 acres. After significant backlash, O’Leary reportedly agreed to cut the project’s footprint by 75% and offered concessions on water use, wildlife protection, agriculture, and open space. But critics say the real issue isn’t the size of the project. The lawsuit argues that MIDA, the authority overseeing the development, has been granted extraordinary control over zoning, taxation, land use, public health, and local governance without sufficient input from residents.
