Google Workers Protest Cloud Contract With Israel's Government
Google employees are staging sit-ins and protests at company offices in New York and California over “Project Nimbus,” a cloud contract with Israel's government, as the country's war with Hamas continues.
Tuesday’s actions mark an escalation in a series of recent protests organized by tech workers who oppose their employer’s relationship with the Israeli government, especially in light of Israel’s ongoing assault on Gaza. In addition to Project Nimbus, the letter cited recent reports that the IDF has used Google Photos to identify and detain Palestinians in the West Bank en masse. Since joining No Tech for Apartheid in December, Ibraheem says he’s been participating in weekly “tabling” actions being held at Google office cafes in New York, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, California, and San Francisco.
