San Francisco’s dotcom companies are hiring guards to protect their offices, which have recently been vandalized by protestors. “The uprising against “dot-commies”, who are blamed by residents for ruining the city’s mellow reputation and artistic heritage, is led by two protest groups, the Yuppie Eradication Project and AARGG! (All Against Ruthless Greedy Gentrification).” – The Telegraph (UK) 10/08/00
