I just saw a video from a local news channel about a different patch of land in Georgia where Georgia Power was given an easement across a bunch of people’s land, essentially cutting these people’s property in half, then they clear cut the forest at the back of their properties and installed some giant transmission line towers also to power datacenters. One young couple interviewed had just bought their property and were planning on using the land to grow food but now they can’t and they also can’t sell because only half their property is usable despite them having paid for the entire plot.
I believe they can sue though. Might depend on the law there but I was literally just watching a video of a lawyer going over what to do if your property is seized and or used in violation of your right to enjoy your property and there’s an avenue for land owners to sue.

It’s sort of the risk you take when buying a property with an easement though. Their realtor should have disclosed that.
If it wasn’t there when they bought it the utility company should have had to at least pay market value for the land.

Could also track down the CEO, trap them in their own dwellings, and set them on fire.
That requires slightly more work though
