"From our perspective, it's business as usual," said Paul Palandjian, the O'Leary Digital co-founder and chief executive officer.
The electoral campaigning "saw a fair amount of misinformation — including a development footprint described as far larger than what's actually planned and claims about heat that simply aren't how the technology works," he said. "That had an effect, and politics is politics. But the facts haven't changed, and neither have we. We're steadfast, and we're moving forward."
Box Elder county resident: O'Leary's totally tone deaf on the project and so are the people that are pushing the project."

Utah is a case study in how NOT to announce and build a hyperscale data centre.
Opposition is so significant that lawmakers who once supported the project are backtracking, with one politician even demanding Kevin O’Leary scale the project back by 75%.
Here’s an updated summary of what’s been going on in Utah, with some updates on Alberta’s Wonder Valley project ahead of an open house planned for this evening in a small hamlet near Grande Prairie.
The MD of Greenview still won’t answer my questions. O’Leary’s proxy in Alberta also did not answer my questions…and oh yeah, the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner is officially now investigating whether the Premier’s office fulfilled its duties with my Access to Information request.
💣 🐚Read my latest! Keeping secrets about massive projects just never goes well.

Also noteworthy, they are directing people to the same website that O'Leary has set up for the Stratos project in Utah.

Checking my notes: I went back and reread an interview I did about Wonder Valley Utah. And I followed up with an Alberta official who now says he may have been “misinformed” about Utah.

The 23-Atomic-Bomb Valley: Why #Utah’s #AIDataCenter Is A #ClimateDisaster In The Making
by Rex Freiberger
Wed, May 20, 2026 at 11:18 AM EDT"Your state might be next. Utah counties just approved a data center so massive it would consume more power than the entire state currently uses, dump the heat equivalent of 23 atomic bombs daily into high desert, and potentially increase local #carbon emissions by 55%. Welcome to the #StratosProject—#KevinOLeary’s 40,000-acre bet that #AI supremacy trumps everything else."
[...]
"Utah State University physicist Robert Davies calculated #Stratos would dump 16 gigawatts of #ThermalLoad into the surrounding valley—energy equivalent to 23 Hiroshima-scale atomic bombs worth of #heat every single day. You’re trying to cool massive server farms by blowing hot desert air over hot radiators, Davies notes, which doesn’t work well in high-altitude, arid conditions.
"His projections show daytime temperatures rising 2-5°F and nighttime temperatures jumping 8-12°F across the region. #Desert #ecosystems depend on #NighttimeCooling to generate life-sustaining #condensation. Lose that temperature drop, and you’ve fundamentally altered how plants and animals survive in an already stressed #GreatSaltLakeWatershed."

A week after Utah Senate President Stuart Adams signed off on the Stratos AI data centre via his role as chair of the Military Installation Development Authority, his Political Action Committee (PAC) received $135,000 from five different companies/individuals who have done business with MIDA in the past.
There’s no evidence any have a direct connection to O’Leary’s AI data centre but they include construction companies, electrical contractors and developers.
Each made $20-40,000 donations, doubling the amount the PAC already had in its bank account.
“Adams is fighting for his political life in the most competitive re-election campaign of his career.”

Kevin O'Leary has combined the Utah project with the Alberta project together on ONE website.
That's...unique.

Stratos : un data center qui chauffe comme 23 bombes nucléaires… par jour. #NotGorafi #datacenter #stratos #IA
23 bombes nucléaires. Par jour. Non, ce n’est pas le pitch d’un film catastrophe. C’est l’ordre de grandeur avancé pour Stratos, un projet de data center géant en cours de développement dans l’Utah, aux États-Unis.

Remember when Microsoft made promises about #datacenters and how they wouldn't be bad for people?
Well #KevinOLeary 🇨🇦(Sharktank) is taking another route and is pushing the #Stratos project in #Utah, an #AI data center twice the size of Manhattan❗️
Not only is it threatening Utah’s power grid and the Great Salt Lake, but O’Leary is now attacking local critics like #GabiFinlayson 💚 on Fox national TV, calling them 🇨🇳 “Chinese spies” just for standing up for their 🇺🇸 state 🤯

In five short weeks, Kevin O’Leary’s Utah version of Wonder Valley has thrown the state into a massive conflict over water, air pollution, heat islands, and the community benefits of AI data centres.
Throw in questions about property rights, accusations of paid protesters, a mysterious Department of War connection, and a Chinese government interference conspiracy…well, you’ve got a story.
Here’s my update on how a Canadian celebrity investor has shaken a US state facing a drought and water crisis.

@jwallen @open-source-ZDNet thank you so much for the review of #StratOS! Never did I (or we, the @StratOS team) expect a review from a major outlet such as ZDNet. Words aren't enough to express my most sincere gratitude.
I'm the maintainer of the #Hyprland spin, and I'm REALLY happy you like it. And we've got more spins coming up - #SwayFX, #Cosmic, #MangoWC etc.
I'm also working on a sister project called #CosmOS, which tries to replicate this on #NixOS. It's still a work-in-progress, though, but one fine day it'll be on par with the other spins.
CCing other members of the team (those who I do know are on the fediverse) @magitian and @Slipstream8125.
Once again, thank you so much for the (what is in my humble opinion very positive) review, and stay tuned. I hope know your article is going to draw attention to the distro, so we'll have to ramp up the maintenance 💪🏻.

@itsfoss not sure if we're allowed to comment on this - but building the #stratos #linux distribution is more fun than we'd like to admit (CC @zstg @magitian @Slipstream8125).
It's involved, but the learning experience is equal parts fun and challenging (in a good way).
Pros: the learning experience and TOTAL customization ability
Cons: can get cumbersome to maintain multiple ISO trees ( @zstg's NixOS edition could solve this rather conveniently)
