Mark Zuckerberg is suing Hawaiian land owners to secure his 700-acre island getawayFacebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is going to great lengths to protect his privacy on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, where he purchased a 700-acre plot of land in 2014 for more than $100 million. Starting last month, Zuckerberg began filing lawsuits against Hawaiian land owners who own small slices of his estate that were passed down from generation to generation, according to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. As many as eight suits have been filed against hundreds of people, some of whom are dead.The Facebook chief is using a legal maneuver called "quiet title and partition," which forces owners of undeveloped land to sell the property in a public highest-bidder auction.Zuckerberg is likely more interested in securing his land than he is in swindling Hawaiian land owners out of a few thousand dollars.

Zuckerberg’s legal team is also legally mandated to try and locate living relatives of deceased land owners to ensure they can participate in the auction.
