Furthermore, I think that a relatively small number of us signing the pledge can have outsized impact when you take the political climate in the Bay Area (and California/the West Coast generally) into account. It's not like we're a small political minority wanting to defy Trump. Quite the opposite: the pledge serves as a way of reminding the people in charge that those of us opposed to Trump's policies in the areas that these companies depend on vastly outnumber the likes of Thiel. In fact, you don't even have to look at just the Bay Area. Americans don't want a Muslim registry. They don't want mass deportations. Even Trump voters don't want mass deportations [1]. Tech companies need to remember that if they facilitate mass deportations, they are working against the will of the American people.
