I find them extremely unnatural and spoiling any natural landscape. I live in a beautiful place on earth with very little human activities (nearly no agriculture or buildings) and would never accept if some were installed there.

Are you living off the power grid? If not, someone is seeing the infrastructure that powers your stuff. Even if you are, someone is seeing the infrastructure that makes your off-grid stuff.

I have never seen wind turbines installed in a "natural landscape", just in the middle of farmland.

They're often installed on ridges in mountainous/hilly areas.
