Really? You think people elsewhere in the USA care about the Echo Chamber's opinions of itself? If anything tech companies are public enemy no. 2 (no. 1 being the NSA) because they don't respect users' privacy. If Silicon Valley was located anywhere else in the USA and not in the San Francicso Bay Area would things ever have gotten this bad? How much of the problem can be blamed on the tech industry and how much of it can be blamed on the area's notorious politics (beg Twitter to stay within city limits, invest 10 billion dollars for the high speed rail link to downtown San Francisco, refuse to build more housing to meet demands, complain about tax paying tech workers forcing the poor out of the area).
