What, exactly is Silicon Valley in this argument? The article does not provide a definition, and seems to repeatedly make the hilarious mistake that Silicon Valley can be "personally" deserving of the sort of moralistic/authoritarian pseudo liberal browbeating that's so common in the media nowadays. It isn't a person that can be shamed on social media. It isn't a nation, a government body, a think tank or any other sort of institution that owes you or society a damn thing. If it even can be viewed collectively it's an expression of capitalism and technological progress that is single mindedly interested in providing value to shareholders.
