"Google Employee Fired for Protesting Israeli Tech Event"

A Google engineer was fired after protesting a presentation by the head of Google Israel, citing refusal to build technology supporting genocide, apartheid, or surveillance. The protest was against Project Nimbus, a cloud-computing contract between Google, Amazon, and Israel's government, with concerns raised about its potential military support. This incident follows the ousting of the YouTube music team and recent calls for CEO Sundar Pichai's resignation amid AI innovation failures and a $2.3 billion lawsuit filed against Google.
