Worker groups like @notechforapartheid.bsky.social and No Azure For Apartheid have been pressuring Microsoft for months or years on issues like these. Microsoft tries to silence dissent and make workers feel powerless--but they aren't. Every employee who was fired for standing up is saving lives.

This weekend, we held a rally against the dangerous alliance developing between Trump and tech billionaires. We joined organizers fighting Big Tech’s data centers, and tech workers @notechforapartheid.bsky.social holding tech corporations accountable for participating in the genocide in Palestine.

In June, @Google quietly signed a $45M ad contract w/ Israel to spread propaganda denying Israel's genocide & starvation of Palestinians in Gaza Along w/ cloud & AI, Google’s ad machine—the world's biggest—is now in Israel's genocide supply chain Statement by Google workers w #NoTechForApartheid🧵

I’m joining hundreds of other #Google workers fasting today in solidarity with people in Gaza who are being forcibly starved. Mutual aid is part of this weekly campaign. Here is one way you can help today. Follow Molly’s incredible work to continue to find ways to help Palestinians directly.

A new report from @mediajustice.bsky.social focuses on data center expansion in the US South, looking at environmental racism and practices of resistance. Can’t wait to dig in!

“As authorities round up their work force, the big players in the world of Silicon Valley-developed delivery apps have largely remained silent. Three of the biggest — Uber, Grubhub, and DoorDash — did not respond to requests for comment.” theintercept.com/2025/08/26/t...

“Any hint of looking at the broader system rather than individual responsibility is excised from this paper. That is clearly an intentional choice: if Google disclosed the system impacts of generation, it would probably look way worse.” @ketanjoshi.co on what’s obscured in Google’s AI climate data.

Al Jazeera Media Network condemns the targeted assassination of its correspondents Anas Al Sharif and Mohammeel Qraiqea, along with photographers Ibrahim Al Thaher, and Mohamed Nofal, by Israeli forces. #JournalismIsNotACrime

"I entrust you with [Palestine's] people, with its oppressed young children who were not given the chance to dream or live in safety and peace, whose pure bodies were crushed by thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart, their remains scattered on the walls." -- Anas Al Sharif

"As AI overviews become the default gateway to information, we risk creating a generation of users who consume knowledge without question, publishers who cannot sustain quality journalism, and a public sphere increasingly shaped by the statistical patterns embedded in large language models."

Google partners with the Israeli military as it conducts a genocide in Gaza. Now, the company is bolstering the United Arab Emirates’ AI ambitions, despite widespread accusations that the UAE is involved in a genocide in Sudan. prismreports.org/2025/07/28/g... @notechforapartheid.bsky.social

'to every Googler relieved to hear Thomas Kurian promise in 2020 that "Cloud isn't working on any projects associated w/ ICE at the Southern border"- Google Cloud is providing AI on those exact projects' -Anonymous Google Worker @notechforapartheid.bsky.social actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Google obliterated their search function for this

BREAKING— Last week, while Israel re-escalated its genocide in Gaza, Google Cloud acquired Israeli start-up Wiz, signaling Google's continued investment in Israel and its commitment to genocide profiteering.

AI continues to perform disappointingly in the commercial market. Musk wants to make the government run on AI, which would save the industry and marry its existence to the inner workings of the federal system. There, AI's poor performance (as in, screwing people over) would be a feature, not a bug.

@bedoyaftc.bsky.social: “Because Mr. Bezos, Mr. Musk, Mr. Zuckerberg, I am actively suing or enforcing court orders against all three of them, and so I think we need to ask ourselves, who does this help? Does this help people trying to make rent, or does it help the kind of billionaires?"

all LLM AI is intrinsically fascist. both the process of creating it is fascist, and it's express purpose is as well. it's mass scale violation of the working class in order to commit erasure, replacement, and round about enslavement of the workers for the sake of their own destruction & even this.

In 1948, Zionist militias established a Jewish state on Palestinian land, instituted a military occupation over Palestinians, and over decades stole increasingly large swaths of Palestinian land to control and mandated a system of Jewish legal supremacy — apartheid.

The total and expanding devastation in Gaza is a result of Zionism. Zionism, in the words of its founders, is an explicitly “colonial” ideology.

Understanding how we got to this horrific moment in history — the US giving unconditional support and funding for the Israeli government to massacre Palestinians — requires a commitment to clarity about how we got here.

At least 410 Palestinians have been reported killed by hospitals. The breakdown by age group is as follows: ➤ 174 children killed ➤ 89 women killed ➤ 32 elderly individuals killed ➤ 109 men killed

REPORT: Information from the Ministry of Health database reveals that 73% of those killed in Israeli strikes today are children, women, or the elderly.

URGENT ACTION ALERT: Over 400 Palestinians murdered overnight as Israel and the US intensify their genocide in Gaza. Read our full action alert: loom.ly/eyUy0qM

However, if you’re looking for a glimmer of hope, I’d like to point to the No Tech For Apartheid ( @notechforapartheid.bsky.social ) campaign of workers trying to pressure Google and Amazon to divest from Israel

And your main alternatives are run by Microsoft and Google. Both of whom also have massive defense contracts to provide tech that’s used to spy on and murder people all over the world. “The cloud” was a mistake 🙃

And as a worker if you join a company that uses AWS, congrats. You’re now using AWS. Most companies don’t move to different cloud providers because it’s tremendously expensive to do so.

The answer to this is a depressing one. AWS has like 30% of the global cloud market share. And chances are, even if a company isn’t directly hosting their infra on AWS, they are using tools and services that are built on aws. AWS is more deeply entangled into our lives than most people realize.

New: we've obtained a leaked list of the more than 200 sites, services, apps an ICE surveillance contractor monitors. Bluesky, OnlyFans, many more. Used to track targets. Highly relevant with the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil by ICE. We've published the full list here: www.404media.co/the-200-site...

This is abhorrent. Vigilante fascist groups are teaming up with elected officials to deport pro-Palestine activists. forward.com/news/703018/...

NEW — Pentagon signs AI deal to help commanders plan military maneuvers using Google AI technology

Bezos is not acting out of fear. He is participating in a political project that benefits him. This distinction is important.

It makes me so angry that they lied to us. If you want to be a defense contractor just say that. Don't intentionally deceive and gaslight your employees to try to keep them as collaborators in your race to be the best merchant of death.

States are using AI to determine whether someone should get public benefits, how much they should get, whether they should stay on, and if they committed fraud. What could go wrong. www.fastcompany.com/91265363/sta...

NEW—Amazon tech workers with the #NoTechForApartheid campaign stand in full solidarity with our Amazon co-workers at the warehouses currently leading historic nationwide strikes. Full statement: medium.com/@notechforap...

The NYPD is working to keep the flow of Amazon goods moving in NYC despite the strike. They’re breaking the Teamster picket line as best they can and serving Jeff Bezos. Working people everywhere should oppose policing for so many different reason.

Starbucks workers AND Amazon workers are on nationwide strikes during one of the busiest shopping periods of the year. I truly hope their bosses are sweating bullets :)

"I think it’s very significant to point out to people that it’s the dead of winter. We’re nearing the holidays. People would rather walk off the job than spend another day in the warehouse under those conditions."
