A San Francisco magazine profile from 2012 talked about Lee's "Tech Tuesday" tradition where he met with workers from SF-based companies like Yelp or Pinterest. The article noted his tech coziness, insisting, "Lee has been moving quickly to align his administration with the booming technology industry, shrugging off complaints from the city’s powerful progressives that he’s gotten too cozy with tech moguls, such as investor Ron Conway."
Others voiced criticism of the mayor's relationship with tech companies.
