>If you really think that the military industrial complex
Please put some effort into reading before replying. The military funding for Stanford is one of the main reason so many tech companies started there. There are now massive network effects that make it the current tech capital but that doesn't mean new incentives can't start new tech hubs elsewhere.
You completely missed the boat about Uber being headquartered in California and still acting completely outside of sane ethical boundaries (their police spying program, etc). In other words, California rolls out the red carpet for these garbage tech companies already. The moral or consumer focused high-ground you are trying to imply doesn't exist. There is only NIMBYism.
Google built the testing headquarters in California because that's where their talent is at, nothing more, nothing less.
