After Tuesday ’s election, the congratulations from the tech elite to Trump came in fast.

Frida Ghitis: Tech executives as well as rank-and-file workers overwhelmingly supported Kamala Harris in the election.

She says the tech industry culture in Silicon Valley has its roots in post-Vietnam baby boomers viewing personal computers as a form of liberation.

Ghitis says the Silicon Valley didn’t shift right, it just wants to be left alone.

PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel has been called the “avatar of techno-libertarianism” Peter Thiel is the leader of the PayPal Mafia .

Elon Musk has emerged as Trump ’s biggest supporter after donating nearly $119 million to his campaign.

Trump has promised Musk a role in his administration as the secretary of cost-cutting”.

PayPal 's PayPal Mafia get to decide what US tech policy will be for the next four years .

You have to wonder if they just want to tear it all down.

Or maybe they’ll get bored and move to a floating nation in international waters where there are no laws.
