“A group of anti-capitalist protesters referring to themselves as ‘anarchists’ demonstrated outside the home of Digg founder and Google Ventures partner Kevin Rose on Sunday, and demanded that Google hand over $3 billion to fund the creation of ‘autonomous, anti-capitalist, and anti-racist communities throughout the Bay Area and Northern California.’ The protest was allegedly organized by a group called The Counterforce, and they call Rose a ‘meta-leech’ who is to blame for the rising cost of living in the Bay Area. Rose has invested heavily in several tech startups, and these startups have moved to the Bay Area to run their businesses.”
