Google fires 28 employees for protesting Israel cloud deal
Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
  • Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

  • The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

  • No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."

  • The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

  • PKS can only capture reported cases, not all crimes - dark field remains unaccounted for.

  • Foreigner crime: term used as fear-mongering, no clear correlation between origin and criminality.

  • Infosys anticipates a modest 1-3% sales growth in the upcoming financial year due to customers delaying discretionary spending on new tech projects amidst the current economic climate.

Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil
  • A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.

  • Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.

  • Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.

  • Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.
