Google Faces Criminal Investigation for Data Center Construction in Finland

Google’s subsidiary Tuike Finland has cleared a 25 million tree area for the data center construction in Muhos, Finland, without completing the required environmental impact assessment.

The Finnish police have launched a criminal investigation into Google’s possible violation of the country’s environmental law.

Residents have reported that the construction has polluted nearby streams and affected local wildlife, with wolves entering the village of Ohtamäki.
