硅谷百多位科技领导人联名炮轰川普反创新，内附公开信和详细名单

周四，近150名科技高管，其中有苹果联合创始人Steve Wozniak，Twitter联合创始人Evan Williams和eBay创始人Pierre Omidyar，共同签署了一份发表于Medium上的致唐纳德·特朗普公开信，信中阐述了他们为什么不支持这位共和党总统候选人，称特朗普当选将是“创新的灾难”。

截至发稿时，特朗普的竞选集团并未作出回应。

这封来自硅谷百位科技领导人的公开信是科技领域对共和党候选人的最新一次抵制，尽管特朗普及其团队此前一直在为拉拢商业领导人而努力。

信中抨击特朗普反对“与其他国家的合作”，痛斥纽约商务人士的移民议案。（川普曾表示，他将在美墨边境筑起高墙阻止非法移民进入美国，以及暂时禁止穆斯林进入美国）。除此之外，特朗普大量对女性、种族群体的有争议言论也在信中被一一抨击。

同时，特朗普在去年提出的“关闭”部分互联网以阻止恐怖分子操纵网络舆论等建议也遭到了这些科技领导人的反对和抵制，称这些建议反应了特朗普对“技术的无知和差劲的判断力。”

但是有一位硅谷教父级人物没有出现在这张名单上：亿万富翁Peter Thiel，PayPal的联合创始人。相反，他将出席下周的共和党代表大会。

“很多人都对这届选举感到迷茫，不过大多数美国人都有一个感觉，那就是我们的国家正偏离正轨。”Thiel在一份声明中说道，“我不认为我们能够解决这些问题，除非我们能够做到真正的开诚布公。因此，我将前往克利夫兰，我将支持共和党的候选人。”

以下是公开信全文内容，首发于Medium：

我们是科技领域的创新者、企业家、工程师、发明家、研究员以及商业领导人。我们一直心怀骄傲，因为我们国家的创新无可比拟，广泛分享，是我们全球领导地位的一个显著特点。

我们相信这是一个充满包容性的国家，她孕育机会、创新和公平的环境。但是唐纳德·特朗普违背这些精神。他对新的创意和新的人群充满愤怒、偏见和恐惧，深信美国正在走向衰败。我们听够了他在过去几年里的言论，对此我们得出的结论就是：特朗普是创新的灾难。他的理念反对思想交流，反对人口自由移动，反对与其他国家的合作——然而这些却对我们的经济至关重要，是创新和发展的基础。

让我们先从推动创新发展的人才说起。我们相信美国的多样化文化是我们的巨大优势。伟大的创意来自社会各个群体，我们应该对此感到骄傲。我们同样相信，进步的移民政策有助于我们吸引并留住更多的优秀人才——科学家、企业家、发明家等等。事实上，在财富杂志评选出的500家公司中，40%公司创始人是来自其他国家的移民，或者是移民的后代。但是，唐纳德·特朗普，固守民族和种族这些老套的观念，不断地侮辱女性，公开对移民恶意相向。他甚至承诺，要高筑城墙，驱逐移民。

我们还认为思想的自由交流，包括互联网的开放，是创新繁荣的种子。但是，唐纳德·特朗普以安全战略为由建议“关闭”部分互联网——毫无疑问这证明了他对技术有多么无知和判断力有多么差劲。他还吊销记者证，威胁惩罚那些批评他的媒体平台。

最后，我们相信政府在技术经济发展中始终扮演着重要的角色，投资基础建设、教育乃至科学研究。唐纳德·特朗普则阐述了一些与之相矛盾的政策。他对我们法律和政治制度的漠视严重威胁到了创业公司在美国的发展。他的当选，极有可能扰乱市场秩序，减少出口，减慢工作机会的创造。

这一次，我们联合抵制唐纳德·特朗普的候选资格，我们希望的候选人，应该愿意构建一个更好的美国科技环境：充满言论自由、欢迎外来者、有平等的机会，公众投资研究和基础建设，尊重法律。我们希望未来的美国更具备包容性，在这里，我们的创新将持续发展。
