Facebook’s billionaire CEO and his wife have nearly doubled their land holdings on Kauai with a recent purchase of 597 acres stretching from the mountains to the sea.
A company owned by Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan recently bought the tract of agricultural and conservation land for $53 million from Waioli Corp., a nonprofit established by descendents of historic Kauai sugar plantation firm Grove Farm, started by the Wilcox family.
The land borders roughly 700 acres Zuckerberg and Chan bought around 2015 for about $100 million to establish a secluded estate in an effort that later angered numerous Native Hawaiian families and other residents when Zuckerberg had lawsuits filed a year later to force the owners of several small parcels within the larger property to sell their land at auction.

Facebook is not a monopoly. You free to start a competing social sharing site tomorrow. It is not governments job to control the market.
I’m betting a steak dinner that this year the Hawaiian tribalists will burn Zuck out. And I’m also betting that his “woke” security team will run away and leave Zuck to be roasted at a kālua.
From your keyboard to the tribal leaders.
I recall he had to adjust the boundaries of his original land purchase so the natives could keep a sacred cemetery unmolested.
They're still not happy...
I kind of think that would be good to see.
It’s good to be the king.
Leftist islands deserve the little libtard censor dweeb. Have fun.
That is wonderful, until you get squished like a bug by big tech and the rest of the communist/borg.
^ what he said.
The "Natives" he is forcing to sell are the descendants of the haoli missionaries and planters who...um, "Acquired" the land from the native Hawaiians.
They came a hundred and twenty years ago and some of them intermarried with the locals but Zuckerberg is no different than their grandparents.
People tend to get upset when you force people from their land. Hiring lawyers to do it is a good way to get your ass killed.
I think you mean fewer conceptions.
I assume his long term plan is to buy the whole island, then declare it the independent Kingdom of Zuck to create his socialist utopia.
Wait...I thought the oceans were rising? Why are all these libs buying ocean front property??
I thought there was a volcano in Iceland that was making land?
As far as I know none of the lava has gone into the sea yet, just making new mountains, basically.
Your a fool to support monopolies.
Especially one with deep government ties to NSA
“how do you break up amazon?”
Forcing them to spin off AWS would be a pretty good start.

The vaccines will ensure fewer contraception s so the population will decrease on its own - thereby saving Mother Earth. Leaving more for the Globalist Elites.
Well, we know they most likely haven’t had the experimental jabs.
