Edge Foundation, Silicon Valley Elite and Guilt by Association

The Edge Foundation, founded by literary agent John Brockman, is identified as a primary hub where Jeffrey Epstein connected with Silicon Valley figures like Nathan Myhrvold, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk.

The discussion questions whether the mainstream media is intentionally avoiding the origins of these relationships to protect powerful tech interests.
