While I think this is an interesting and important topic, and a complicated judgement call, I'm trying to figure out why a random internet poll is playing a serious role in the conversation.
As a proxy for the sentiments of the hundreds of thousands of stakeholders (aka regular people) who don't have corporate PR departments to make their views known?
Or a proxy for a few hundred Austin residents who are annoyed by the traffic jams. Or as a proxy for bots representing a competing conference. Or who knows. That's kind of the problem with random internet polls.
