This article seems like a giant non-sequitur. Just because Silicon Valley was founded with investment from the military doesn't require they continue to take this investment. Georgetown University was saved financially by selling slaves, I hardly think anyone would argue that this fact means they should continue to deal with slave traders.
You can certainly argue these companies/employees are being naive or unpatriotic or whatever but Silicon Valley's original source of funding is irrelevant to this discussion.
