I didn’t see anywhere in the article where they say they were going to buy the houses for that amount. Do you have other information?
'Cause otherwise - those homes have been severely devalued because of that data center. Unless the CEO was feeling generous (ha), those homeowners would be forced to sell for a bottom-of-the-barrel price. And that is much cheaper than litigation.
Why aren't the datacenter owners ever willing to spend, say, $10 million on making the data center actually quiet instead?
