when it comes to technology itself i think it is very much the case.

when it comes to marketing i wonder if immigrants might not understand the population so well.

if i went to india and tried to start a social network i'd almost certainly fail and people would say i was clueless, maybe imperialistic, ask what i was thinking, etc. I just dont know enough about India to think I could connect with people there.

In some parts of the US the opposite kind of deviance is normalized, and I never here it questioned that immigrants might have a hard time understanding and connecting w/ consumers. People just think it is hard to succeed and if you go to SV it doesnt matter if you succeed or not becauae you'll get aqui-hired anyway.
