Two of the largest supportors of Proposition 19 in California are well known on the Silicon Valley scene. They are Sean Parker, Facebook’s first president as well as one of the founder’s of the music site Napster, and Dustin Moskovitz, another of Facebook’s co-founders. Parker has contributed $100,000 to the campaign, while Moskovitz has given $70,000 of his money to the legislation to make marijuana legal for recreational use in the state.

Parker’s character is portrayed by Justin Timberlake in the new file The Social Network, which has helped his reputation as the bad boy of the valley. These donations as well as recent behavior on the New York social scene have furthered this image.

Ironically, Facebook has banned the use of marijuana leaves in ads shown on its website.
