Question De todo y de todos

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but I'll try. I'm reading an article that has the following sentence:

"Claro, no sabemos de él porque es un ciudadano originario de Islandia, un país con un poco más de 300,000 habitantes y ubicado muy lejos de todo y de todos."

I understand the whole sentence, except for the last part, which I have bolded. The context is an article about the arrest of a group of Icelandic men who were recently arrested in London on charges of bank fraud. The author is Argentine, writing for a Latin American audience.

Any help with that phrase is greatly appreciated!
