"Google Fires Employee for Anti-Israel Protest at Tech Conference"
A Google employee was fired after interrupting a tech conference with an anti-Israel rant, accusing the company of "powering genocide" and referencing the conflict between Hamas and Israel. The disruption occurred during a lecture by Google Israel's managing director, Barak Regev, and the employee was swiftly escorted out by security. The outburst was related to Project Nimbus, a $1.2 billion contract between Amazon Web Services, Google, and Israel, which provides cloud services for the Israeli government and military. Google confirmed the termination, stating that the behavior was not acceptable and violated company policies.
