CODEPINK and No Tech For Apartheid crashed Google’s booth at the AI+ expo on “National Competitiveness” to ask: What kind of “responsible AI” powers ecocide and genocide? While Gaza starves, Google profits. Project Nimbus fuels Israeli bombing campaigns, surveillance, and apartheid, and they dare to call it innovation? Google... show more

Powerful question. @Michael_ReedSEA’s clarity on market ethics has been helpful context here—profit can’t outweigh human cost. Tech’s role in conflict needs scrutiny. #ResponsibleAI

BREAKING: Pro-Palestine activists have disrupted a presentation by Werner Vogels, Amazon vice president and Chief Technology Officer, at the UN’s “AI for Good” summit in Switzerland. Palestinian civil society strongly condemns the UN International Telecommunication Union’s shameful partnership with criminal tech companies in this summit, particularly Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Cisco, Oracle, and IBM. In providing cloud infrastructure and AI technologies to the Israeli war ministry, these companies are deeply complicit in Israel's military occupation, apartheid and genocide against Indigenous Palestinians. Project Nimbus, the joint $1.22 billion contract between Google and Amazon signed in 2021, provides cloud and AI tech services to the Israeli government and the Israeli military. It enables the Israeli military to run deadly AI programs such as Lavender and Gospel — crucial to its ongoing, livestreamed genocide in Gaza. We call for global pressure on the UN and its member States to end all UN partnership and contracts with these and similarly complicit corporations, and on Amazon and Google to drop their genocidal Project Nimbus.

Terrifying reality exposed: Big Tech companies like Palantir, Google, and Amazon are using the genocide in Gaza as a testing ground to train their AI war bots. They are profiting off mass slaughter to sell autonomous killing software to militaries worldwide.

Tulsi, Israel is the national security threat! The U.S. sends billions to fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza killing tens of thousands, displacing millions, and fueling global outrage. People around the world see our complicity and are turning against us. This is making us hated, isolated, and unsafe. Real security starts with ending U.S. support for war crimes.

There is no denying that the Israeli apartheid regime is using starvation as a weapon of war. They proudly admit to these war crimes. Our country is an accomplice in this genocide, and the world is letting it happen. Don't stop demanding accountability. Arms embargo now.

"Genocide isn't just about Israelis and Palestinians. It's about the whole world – about humanity, and how we’re erasing humanity." The victims of the genocide in Gaza are Palestinians, and the perpetrators are Israelis. But genocide is a universal human phenomenon. As such, the responsibility to recognize, understand and oppose it lies with all of us. At the same time, while genocide shares common core aspects, every instance has unique characteristics. B'Tselem Executive Director Yuli Novak talked with the "Eyes on Gaza" project to explain why the mass killing and destruction in Gaza did not emerge in a vacuum. They are the direct result of nearly 80 years of separation, militarization of Israeli society, and dehumanization of Palestinians, all of which paved the way for the catastrophe unfolding today. Watch the full conversation (in Hebrew) >>

Hey, Grok. What group is predominantly responsible for the murder of Indigenous women in Canada? Answer: Indigenous men. Maybe instead of crying about a fake genocide and accusing the Canadian gov't, Leah Gazan should call on the FN men to stop killing their own women.

Google just completely BETRAYED its principles and people. In 2018, 4,000 Google employees signed a letter demanding the company to stop helping the Pentagon use AI for drone strikes. Google listened. They dropped the contract and published a pledge promising they would NEVER use AI for weapons or surveillance. But Google just signed a $200 million deal to put its most powerful AI on the Pentagon's classified networks for "any lawful purpose." And the story behind how they got from Point A to Point B is one of the most calculated corporate betrayals in Silicon Valley history. Here's what happened: The 2018 protest was over Project Maven, a Pentagon program that used Google's AI to identify targets in drone footage. Employees said "Google should not be in the business of war." A dozen engineers quit. Thousands more signed petitions. Google folded and let the contract expire. Then they published their famous AI Principles: 1. No weapons 2. No surveillance 3. No technologies that cause harm Sundar Pichai personally announced them. That pledge lasted exactly as long as the contracts didn't matter. Because here's what Google did quietly over the next 7 years while everyone thought they were the "ethical" AI company: December 2022: Won a share of the Pentagon's $9 billion Joint Warfighting Cloud contract alongside Amazon, Microsoft, and Oracle. 2024: Deployed Gemini to 3 million Pentagon personnel. February 2025: Quietly DELETED the weapons and surveillance language from their AI Principles. No announcement or press conference. April 2026: Signed the classified deal with the Pentagon for "any lawful government purpose." They didn't have a change of heart. They had a change of revenue. And the timing of this deal is where it gets really dark: 600 Google employees, including 20+ directors and VPs from DeepMind, sent a letter to Pichai on Monday begging him not to sign. The letter said the only way to guarantee Google's AI wouldn't be used for lethal autonomous weapons or mass surveillance was to reject classified workloads entirely, because once the technology enters air-gapped military networks, nobody at Google can see what happens to it. But Google literally signed the deal WHILE THE EMPLOYEES SLEPT. One Google AI researcher told Business Insider: "When I went to bed yesterday, I was hopeful that the employee letter would have an effect. This morning I woke up to the worst-case version of the contract being signed." The contract says Google has NO right to control or veto how the government uses its AI. The Pentagon can request Google to adjust its AI safety settings. And the deal covers classified networks where Google employees cannot monitor what's being done with their own technology. They handed over the keys and gave up the right to ask what the car is being used for. Meanwhile Anthropic got BLACKLISTED as a "supply chain risk" for asking for two restrictions: No mass surveillance of Americans and no fully autonomous weapons without a human pressing the button. The Pentagon treated an American company like a foreign adversary for requesting the exact same principles Google publicly pledged in 2018 and then quietly deleted. The math sums up the whole story: Project Maven in 2018 was worth a few million dollars. Google walked away and got applauded for having principles. The classified AI market in 2026 is worth tens of billions. Google deleted the principles and signed the deal at midnight. Palantir took over Project Maven after Google dropped it. That investment grew to $13 billion. Google watched a competitor make billions off the contract they abandoned for ethics and decided that would never happen again. In 2018, principles beat profits. In 2026, profits buried the principles. Google sold their soul for money.
