Boston or Hartford makes sense, easy recruiting area, close to a bunch of colleges that will pump employees into your data mill

As far as political capital goes, that can cut both ways. Amazon is an outspoken critic of the Republican-controlled FCC's plans to destroy net neutrality in the US, as one example. It would send a powerful message by pointing to something like that as a reason justifying a move to Canada (or Europe). Even the threat of such could seriously impact American tech policy.
