A group of Google employees staged sit-ins at the company’s offices to protest the tech giant’s work with the Israeli government, escalating the conflict inside tech companies over the war in Gaza and whether U.S. companies should sell technology to Israel, the Washington Post reported on X on Tuesday.
Protesters entered the workspace of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian on Tuesday morning and promised to stay there until Google pulls out of a $1.2 billion contract it shares with Amazon to provide cloud services and data centers to the Israeli government, added the source.
The media reported that some workers and outside activists have opposed the contract, known as Nimbus, since it was signed in 2021.
