California’s Siebel Newsom Slams Tech Titans for Rightward Shift

In a recent interview, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the wife of California Governor Gavin Newsom, has criticized the tech industry for its perceived rightward shift in recent years. Siebel Newsom, a filmmaker and advocate for gender equality, expressed concern over the growing influence of tech titans in the political sphere, particularly their support for conservative causes and candidates. She argued that the tech industry's focus on profits and shareholder value has come at the expense of social responsibility and ethical considerations. Siebel Newsom also highlighted the industry's lack of diversity and the need for more inclusive and equitable practices. The article notes that Governor Newsom has maintained a relatively cordial relationship with the tech industry, even as he has clashed with former President Donald Trump on various issues. However, Siebel Newsom's comments suggest a more confrontational approach, reflecting a growing divide between the tech sector and some progressive voices in California.
