Montes immediately joined a Google employee group called No Tech for Apartheid, which had been organizing around Project Nimbus since 2021. Their goal is for Google to drop its contract with the Israeli government. She says the group has raised its concerns with Google's leadership, spoke in company town halls and set up tables in Google's offices with fliers about Project Nimbus.
The No Tech for Apartheid group says that without clarity on the project, it's still unclear how the technology is being used in Israel. They say they fear it could be used in the war in Gaza and be weaponized against Palestinian civilians. "It was a lot of weird energy because we kept thinking like, 'are they going to call the cops already?'" Montes says, recounting the day.
The email said she had"violated Google's code of conduct" and"policy on harassment, discrimination and retaliation" during the events on Tuesday.
