Bloomberg: "Saudis scale back ambition for $1.5 trillion desert project Neom. In Neom, The Line was expected to house 1.5 million by 2030. Now, fewer than 300,000 are expected to live there by then." (archive.ph)

I assume MBS is serious about it and he seems to function like a quasi-dictator. But even for Saudi - their plans were (and remain) insane. My hunch is one day construction will quietly and totally stop. After that - any Saudi citizen even making a tiny joke about it online is in danger of prison, torture, execution - or all three. And I bet MBS is super-touchy about it until the end of his life.
