There’s a dead comment asking why he doesn’t live where the other billionaires live.
This seems like a fair question. Atherton for example just already has lots large enough to build a compound without doing anything weird. It’s not like he needs to be walking distance to things, it seems like he doesn’t just go out in public these days, does he? It is kind of odd.

It's certainly ironic considering his company's founding mission was connecting people.
Some amount of isolation can be normal as a high-profile CEO. At some point, it gets to be quite a sad life. You can't enjoy any activities without planning. You only interact with family, executive assistants, the C-suite, peer executives, and security. Everyone in your life is a sycophant, and you're blind it it. You can't drive yourself. You live life in a cushy cocoon with both unlimited freedom and zero freedom.
