Lots of people in SF feel that these tech companies are pricing them out of their hometown.

Or it could just be regular vandals looking for an excuse to tear up something and a vague memory about a self driving car killing someone in the news was good enough to tear up one of them.

I feel like if you live in SF and don’t own property or don’t work in tech, the rise of the tech industry has been bad for you.

SF was a city of "old money" long before the tech companies set foot there. And old money still seems to have a lot of say in San Francisco.

But yes, that doesn't prevent people who don't even seem to be aware of that "old money" from going after tech.
