Why would the people who know the tech biz the best not trust their tech?
Send em to Rhode Island instead. Terrible roads, worse drivers, third world cars.

Edit to add: Those old wooden Chinatown buildings, and my companion lives in one, could catch fire in minutes and the elderly residents & kids could be trapped and burn to death. The whole steep hillside neighborhood could go up.
