GitHub became the latest technology company to come under fire for its supporting role in the Trump administration’s immigration clampdown Wednesday, with employees of the Microsoft-owned company demanding Chief Executive Nat Friedman cancel a $200,000 contract with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“Attempting to cancel a purchase will not convince the current administration to alter immigration policy,” Friedman wrote. “Other actions, such as public advocacy, supporting lawsuits, meaningful philanthropy, and leveraging the vast resources of Microsoft will have the greatest likelihood of affecting public policy. Our voice is heard better by policymakers when we have a seat at the table.
Thank you to those employees who stood against tyranny. You can't be illegal on stolen and occupied lands!
Aren’t they cute?
