Google employees and other demonstrators protest against the war in Gaza and Google’s work with the Israeli government on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, in front of the Google offices in Sunnyvale, Calif. SUNNYVALE — A group of disappointed and angry Google employees protested outside a company building on Tuesday after it was reported that the search giant had deepened a contract with the Israeli government.
“To find out that your labor is being used for war still is very jarring to my coworkers and myself,” Haseem said. Outside the Google office, dozens of employees wore shirts with the phrase “Googlers against genocide” on it, with ‘genocide’ being colored in Google’s classic colors. Some passed out “Free Palestine” buttons and others waved Palestinian flags. One of the signs even called out Google’s onetime slogan, “Don’t be evil,” as they called for an end to retaliation against employees who spoke out against Project Nimbus.
This isn’t the first time that Google workers held protests against their employer or against Project Nimbus. In December, hundreds of people marched in San Francisco while about a dozen lied under white shrouds marked with “Genocide” in Google’s trademark colors in protest of the contract with Israel’s government.
“Google is known for its culture of openness and human rights, of equity and justice, and we’re just asking that they uphold their own values to do no harm, to do no evil and to do the right thing,” Khouri said. “And we really want to support them in doing the right thing.” Google employees and other demonstrators protest against the war in Gaza and Google’s work with the Israeli government on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, in front of the Google offices in Sunnyvale, Calif.
