<p>Good morning <span>Liz</span>,</p>
<p>Silicon Valley has a reputation as a liberal place, but it was a critical partner in the deadly "Unite the Right" rally that cost a counter-protestor her life.</p>
<p>Hate groups of all stripes used their websites to advertise their participation in the rally. They turned to social media to urge their followers to join them. And they used services like PayPal and Patreon to fund their invasion of Charlottesville, Virginia.</p>
<p>Such partnerships may soon be a thing of the past. By Monday morning, service providers had begun to pull the plug on hate groups and individual extremists alike.</p>
