Are tech companies responsible? It seems to me that we blame them because they're the only competent party thanks to the current state of local government. Deciding growth and development seems like the domain of local government, not corporations. I think that's the problem we need to fix, because it's a problem we, the citizens, can fix, since we're able to vote and participate in government. The problems in SV, Austin, Seattle, etc are caused by failures of local governments. The success of big tech certainly fuels the problems, but it is the poor decisions of local citizens and their governments that resulted in the traffic, housing and cultural isssues.
