If I had fucking 280 billion and wanted to build the world's biggest data center right fucking now, you bet your ass I'd buy out the entire production chain of renewables infrastructure and get fucking even richer for the next 50 years as I use the stuff at the start to make the data center, then the rest to charge the local population for green energy, and to spend the rest of the supply chain after to sell more green energy production stuff.
If you had 280 billion, you wouldn't give two hot shits about destroying the world.
Not really, I keep up with the news and want to achieve nice things.
Evil.
