Once upon a time they mostly did, and there are still some holdouts left. It was sometime near the end of, or right after, the first big tech bubble. There was a big change in silicon valley culture then, as it went from being nerds with a high proportion of libertarians, to Ivy Leaguers, MBAs, and their hanger-ons. University indoctrination making it difficult to get a degree without at least pretending to support the hate culture of the left has done the rest.

Silicon Valley has never respected the right of free speech, so why should they start pretending to now?
This is perfectly in line with their previous behaviour.
