former head of international relations, Ross LaJeunesse, says he was effectively pushed out last April after 11 years with the company after raising human rights concerns. that he left because he spent two years pressuring Google to implement a comprehensive human rights policy while the company was pushing into China.LaJeunesse said he wasn't fired from Google, but left voluntarily after a reorganization in February eliminated his role at the company.
Former Google head of international relations, Ross LaJeunesse, is now running for US Senate in Maine.LaJeunesse wasn't fired from Google. He said, and the company confirmed to Business Insider, that he left voluntarily after a reorganization in February eliminated his role at the company.
"Each time I recommended a Human Rights Program, senior executives came up with an excuse to say no,"LaJeunesse said he renewed his push for a definitive human rights policy within Google in 2017, as the company prepared to launch a new, censored version of its search engine in China — known internally as Project Dragonfly.
"As someone who had consistently advocated for a human rights-based approach, I was being sidelined from the on-going conversations on whether to launch Dragonfly. I then realized that the company had never intended to incorporate human rights principles into its business and product decisions," he wrote.
The project's intent was to finally launch a version of Google's ubiquitous Search in the country — a version of Google Search that would block certain search terms, including "human rights." Google notoriously pulled out of China in 2010 after discovering an attempted hack by the Chinese government into Google's servers.
Salih_Hudayar It does not surprise me when a us company is at the helms of a sneaky hindu who is desperate to make a fortune at the cost of us strength and values. It is time to disband google and other tech companies which kowtow to ccp.

Que vergüenza Google, cómo puedes aliarte con el enemigo número 1 del mundo 🌎?
antichinazi BoycottChina
So, Google is now seeing Huawei as role model, and planning to surveil people?
BoycottChina is not only a matter of human right, but also about intellectual property rights and Internet security. Chinese market is just an illusion! They will steal all your technology when trading with you.

Another spineless corporation bowing to Chinese hegemony!
When will Google realizes that there's no space for it in China while Baidu, a Chinese search engine, dominating the market via copying functions of Google
Simply disappointed to see Google valuing Chinese money more than human rights...
Money shall not override human rights. Shame on Google.
Always intervening international business and tried to trapped them with RMB, this is all tactics that CCP could do.
See? Human rights violation is no longer a problem within China only. It has already spread to the free world bc no one even tried to stop China before. StandUp4HumanRights
