Democracy Now! speaks with two of the Google employees who were arrested staging sit-ins on Tuesday at the company’s offices in New York City and in Sunnyvale, California, to protest the tech giant’s work with the Israeli government. Organized by the group No Tech for Apartheid, the protesters are demanding Google withdraw from Project Nimbus, a $1.2 billion contract to provide cloud computing services to the Israeli military. “Google execs basically chose to arrest workers for speaking out against the use of our technology to power the first AI-powered genocide,” says Google software engineer Mohammad Khatami, who was arrested in New York. Google worker-organizer Ray Westrick, who was arrested occupying CEO Thomas Kurian’s office, says “more people are willing to organize and risk their jobs in order to take a stand against complicity in genocide.” We also speak with No Tech for Apartheid organizer and former Google worker Gabriel Schubiner, who calls on the tech industry to divest from Google and Amazon services. “Technology workers actually have a lot of power to shift this paradigm and to remove technology from this deep complicity with the Israeli occupation,” Schubiner says.

I hate to break it to you guys, but Hamas is not a democracy. The irony. 😂😅😂
it was voted in a democratic election.
This tech will be used against anyone who speaks out against Israel.
Not just Palestinians.
will not, it is being used.
Is true , they expect me to only say beautiful things about them.
Nice
When I first saw this... Thought of the movie minority report, Wall E, Black mirror ... Social credit score thru this program... How they'll monitor what you buy and sell, research and read. etc 😲. Pre crime based on searches online 😲
100% facts
And today they have all been fired....28
Happy Birthday to me!
Good move Google
😂😂 As a small business owner, I would fire any employee trying to advance their political agenda on my dime. Want to protest in workplace? Go buy your own company and you can do whatever you want. I doubt any legitimate company will hire them after this. The can only work in NGOs now
@@Paul-sk2pcshould come to the uk our doctors and nurses do this on a regular basis 😂😂😂😂
@@Paul-sk2pc But you're advancing your political agenda on theirs? This very comment definitely tells me that you're a shitty employer that takes no dissent or wants no discussion with employees. You're the big bad boss and what you say goes. A little dictator who gets off on bossing other people around because it makes you feel strong when in reality you're a weak insecure fraud. Or rather, that is how it always turns out with people who have that viewpoint.
If asked to leave, its called trespassing, not a sit-in
When Google banned Trump and his supporters, you were fine. Now enjoy your own medicine.
Yup! They can go join the unemployment line.
So much for DEI hires when someone threatens your bottom line, all bets are off!
i am sure google can replace these employees fast, there’s a lot software engineers available and glad to take google job..

Google started out as the fun little hippy alternative search engine to AOL. Then their maps were cool ...but now its morphed into dystopian nightmare. Too bad YT sold out.
Was an image change is all. Truth is they were both chosen to be de facto monopolies and got a lot of funding to take that role.

Employment isn't a democracy. Employment is an agreement to perform specified duties as agreed upon when hired, under a company's policy. Disgruntled? Don't let the door hit your big ass!
Arrested and terminated. Now you will be blacklisted too.
Arrested by police or Google?
@@debanjanghoshdastidar8970 how can google arrest people? That doesn't even make any sense.

Everyone who speaks against Israel gets blacklisted anyway because Zionists run the USA. Zionist mafia is the "deep state" everyone talks about. They are having trouble now though because you can't sanction everyone or you effectively sanction yourself, and people are waking up to their true nature.
Arrested by police and blacklisted by google. They will be hard to find job later on.
Technology can give us comfort and convenience, but also able to do great harm. First it was a big stick, bat, knives, swords, guns, bombs, atomic bombs, now A.I. technologies. I will be using other search engines.

no, on the contrary, many companies/communities will want to work with them, because they have integrity, courage and honesty.. they don't keep quiet when they see "potential crime and injustice" in front of them... why can Israel do whatever they want to commit crimes against humanity and no one stops it? because many good people are silent and don't care... even though in the end the damage caused by Israel's behavior can impact them too, those who are silent, those who support... Remember, no power on earth is eternal

My country Turkiye has many times proposed that we muslims establish a peace keeping force and have our selves established in bases in Jordan and the region, but Arab countries have so far succummed to foreign pressures and not accepted such an offer, as yet.
To all the Arab brothers and sisters; without falling out of Islamic etiquitte and manners, and without endangering yourselves or others, please rally your leaders/governments, so we can get together and do what's needed to stop all this,
...condemnation, throwing an aid pallet or two from airplanes and posing for the cameras for the media isn't right, we need to establish a peace keeping force to stop the brutality.

while you retain your cushy job wherever... these 'youth' will get old being shunned by every employer they would like to work for. And what do they get in return? kudos from hypocrites like you
Stupidity. Now jobless
"The first AI-powered genocide" how chilling. I worked at Google, I know how the majority of employees are terrified/simply not interested in risking their cushy jobs to speak up about anything. Speaking up about deals with China (i.e. Project Dragonfly) is one thing because anti-China sentiment is so much more accepted in the U.S. But speaking out against Israel? These people deserve SO MUCH respect for taking a stand and risking their positions. Sending them SO much love and respect. And shame on Google.
The minute you hear someone use the term "genocide" for the massacre in Gaza, you know they haven't the faintest idea what they're talking about. They've read nothing about the Yazidis in Syria, Nagoro-Karabah, the Armenian genocide, Srebrenica, Burundi and Rwanda, the anti-jewish pogroms in the Arab world that led to the departure of 96% of jews from arab countries.... No one with perspective on other historic events or context on the situation can honestly call this a genocide.
Google is a business last I checked, correct? A privately owned company, correct? They have the right to fire whom ever they please. Especially insabordanent employees who are actually being one side, and antisemitic. Or did these employees forget what happened on the 7th of October that started this whole tragedy. Because I most certainly haven't. They want to talk about "genocide" then lets get the whole picture shall we? Who crossed the border into who's country and killed innocent unarmed civilians in their own homes and decappitated babies in their cribs? Who killed how many people during the Nova music festival on that day and gang raped young women? How many people were taken hostage back to Gaza? Plus, as of this posting how many people are still being held hostage in Gaza? Lets be transparent about this shall we? Talk about being one side and bias. WOW?! This is antisemitism incognito if ever there was. And the media is going along with it.
@@user-ny1ux1hz8u Don't use other genocides to justify this one thanks
It's a job , go to work, clock out and go home. They deserve to be jobless. Don't bite the hand that feeds, if they really wanted to protest they should have just quit but I bet they cashed those checks every Friday. Hypocrites

@@lailashoukat714why would Israel invade India? Dont talk like stupid leftist. These protesting employees should know clearly. If they are in Google, they should do justice to their hob. If not interested, they can as well leave and do whatever they want.
Google employees are fortunate to express their voices because they live in the Western world and work for Western companies. This is not the case in other parts of the world, particularly in the Arab world, where even employees of this media cannot freely express democratic ideas in the country where the media is based.
AND THOSE ARABIANS ARE GIVING LECTURE TO WESTERN CIVILIZATION
They were arrested because they chose to sit in peacefully. How are they fortunate ?

@@CloudNetworkingyou can not sit on private property and cause work disturbance. This has nothing to do with democracy, it is anarchy 😅
@@animuxhm2509 Thanks for reply. You are right; I framed the comment in the context of freedom of speech and protest.

If Qatar had democracy and freedom, we could hear many opinions from various Qatari people.
Google is guilty of so much more! Those interested: DR Congo, Africa cobalt mines; where young children have been used brutally to mine for cobalt, for decades. And, not all blame lays with local African government, which can be bought/bribed for 100m or so.

Can we protest being US citizens since our tax money goes to this war as well?
Humanity will indeed not remain idle. If the genocide continues, along with threats of war with Iran, I think governments in the Western world will be surprised by how ordinary people will block the war machine, how countless people will become new activists and resist in all sorts of ways.

Freedom of speech is selective to assist the elites.
I completely agree with this.
Freedom of speech does not apply to your working place, nor it means freedom from consequences of speech.
You kids were not taught about how freedom of speech works, where it applies, nor you were taught any boundaries or proper professional conduct.
Your job isn't your college, your employee pays you to do a job, not to slack on your duties and enact political sit-ins in the work place on working hours.
You want to protest, you can use your free speech rights on your free time and in public places which Goggle isn't one. It's a private entity and pays you to WORK! Don't agree with the company policy, quit and find another job.
That's how the real world and free speech work.
Your parents failed miserably at curbing your whims and teaching you proper conduct. You can wear a bikini at the beach, you can't wear it in a working place. Free speech is the same, it has its proper places.

Israel is not an apartheid state. 20% of Israelis are Arabs, and they are doing very well, thank you very much. There are 10 Arab leaders in the Israeli parliament or Knesset. An Arab judge sits in the Supreme Court. When I was there, the owners of hotels and tour buses were all Arab. Jewish tour guides work for their Arab bosses. They seem to get along.
Educate yourself, people. You don't have a First Amendment right in a private workplace. So frankly, you got what deserve.

I guess is much better to support those who support g'no cide. We all enjoy certain freedoms because other had the boll'cks to fight for them, otherwise we will still be in the middle ages.
They protested knowing that they would get fired obviously. They did this for attention which was smart because it worked. Even you are paying attention.
I get emotional when I see young people taking risks in solidarity with the oppressed. They are young and they are the future, I remain hopeful. Solidarity with the oppressed is what makes us humans! Keep going!
Now they can do sit-ins all day long inside their tent under the bridge because they lost their jobs.

Life is not only materialism. It's values first. Money second, except for the evils.
those benefits do not negate the fact that google is making technology to kill people, and promote censorship, and punish people for speaking out

Hello 👋 friend how are you doing today 😃 hope am not bothering you??😊
trust me, they wont have jobs next week. "placed on leave" means fired.
A non-compete clause is a contractual term between an employer and a worker that blocks the worker from working for a competing employer, or starting a competing business, typically within a certain geographic area and period of time after the worker's employment ends.
those are generally un-enforceable - though they may find it hard to find work for other obvious reasons - they are a threat to any business that is dumb enough to hire them.
I thank these caring people for creating a certain number of jobs at the cost of their well-being.

Leftism is a cult so it makes perfect sense. Leftists stand for nothing real, they do this to LOOK as if they do so yes, people that would be murdered in the streets will still side with them because the rest of the cult is siding with them.
I guess LGBTQ could go the other way and support the bombing and starving of kids.
Would that make better sense to you?
Around 10% of any population around the world is gay. That includes the population of Palestine. Unless Israeli missiles and bombs magically avoid killing gay Palestinians, supporting the ethnic cleansing of Palestine is anti-lgbt.
I feel sorry for these indoctrinated and manipulated young people. They have no idea of the hidden strings that pull their childish reasoning, nor the kinds of evil they help to maintain. They will most certainly continue to live at home with their parents with no real career opportunities, for they do not know right from wrong. What a pity for their own parents who have sacrificed themselves to give them an education that has produced no real fruit. "By their fruits you shall know them".
I feel sorry for you, for you were once young, and unfortunately your parents brainwashed you, forget about religion, the old war mongers like nyetenahu, biden, UK, France and Germany will eventually get sick of all this, as Madiba once said the enemy's of our enemy's are not our enemy's
You are in a free country, go work somewhere else and respect others' work space.
Solidarity
Nope.
It’s not about Palestine or Israel. It’s about the fact that they’re paying you quite handsomely to do what engineers do and not only were you not doing it you were impeding your coworkers from doing theirs as well as making them feel unsafe. It’s amazing how that doesn’t register in their minds.
Good. If you want to protest,don't do it during work on workplace property. If the host thinks this is okay you're wrong. Retaliation? Lol. You either broke a company rule or broke the law. Quit whining. You should be black listed from the tech industry.
Thank you sooo much for this extremely important information. I had no idea. Our world is so terrifying right now. I am so disgusted at the evil of our country and the billionaires contributing to the absolute horrors of our world. SHAME
How is Google contributing to anything between Israel and Gaza?
@@truthismycause2800 You should actually "watch" the video you're commenting on and you wouldn't have to ask that redundant question.
@@ThunderDog97 I did. They were spouting nonsense.
@@truthismycause2800 "Spouting nonsense"? Time to change your profile name. 'cause it is not.
@@truthismycause2800Watch it again but actually pay attention then. I'm sure you're not incapable of understanding something so basic.
There's are female arabs who hold positions of power in Israeli government. Can you say the same about Palestine?
What does that have to do with genocide?
So? There have been 14,000 children murdered by Israel in Gaza since Oct 7. I’m no fan of organized religion, all three of the big ones are sick. It is immoral and deviant to kill innocents regardless of their beliefs.
Oh, I guess that justifies all the child murder then!
gotta give some credit to Google employees who were arrested staging sit-ins at the company’s offices to protest the tech giant’s work with the Israeli government
Does not matter when United States itself is giving aid .
She’s sitting in bosses office not moving when told to and calling it a protest. You do it and tell me how it goes. This is insane if you really thinks it’s okay
Why didnt they just quit if they actually cared enough. Nobody ever takes responsibility for their actions, if you arent doing your job and protesting against your company, then they probably dont want or need you. Go take your services and protests somewhere else.
Because then no one would know why they quit.......the point of the protest is to get attention and it obviously worked. There are lots of slow people in this comment section.....
@@la6136 No the reason they didnt quit, is because they wanted that paycheck. They didnt know they would get fired. They still actualy believe they are entitled to work there. It has nothing to do with getting attention for the cause, we all know about it. If you feel strongly enough about something and you have integrity, you just say I wont be apart of it and leave, but they didnt do that, they wanted their money.
The actions of this young people in tech and their bravery to speak up is very hopeful. I applaud their work and human sense of ethics.
Google (lack of morals)
Google is good.
@@user-zq7zb6ew8pUntil they start using this AI to tarrget you, then you'll change your tone.
The problem is that they made too many diversity hires
Don't talk about moral on the big tec company their job is to make money and don't break the law
@@MRoROBOTthat’s funny because google has lost multiple lawsuits about invading peoples privacy even when the persons incognito was on!!! SMH
Do they understand they are discussing this information on TV? Did they not sign confidential and intellectual property agreement when onboarding. This generation is just dumb. Smh
Everyone should ask their Google ai about participating in genocide and how it feels about that. "Hey, Google.."
I salute these brave principled techies.
They can be brave at delivering food for UberEats and living in a tent under a bridge where they can do all the sit-ins they want🤣
LOL their new jobs "You want fries with that?"
you mean dreckies.
Hahah…. brave. Ok.
These are the same techies who were all for censoring people who didn’t fall inline with the woke sjw movements. Now they will feel what it’s like to be silenced. Y’all voted and enabled all of this
Thank you to those that take a stand!
now they are all standing outside the gates of Google rowdy to join the unemployment lot.
Just lobby for their own people. They don't do this for the kurds, who still suffer.
corporations need to stay out of politics. people you go to work not to spread your beliefs or agendas.
Google can hire people overseas and save money due to different labor cost get the same result so loosing this woke employee is not gonna affect google
Thanks for speaking out despite all the risks. Humanity is above all and prevails!!!
-from an Asian!
lame
are you sure you are asian lol
Humanity is not above all, and that kind of stupid ethnocentric thinking has led to the brutal abuse of our planet, there being no planet B...this specie is a cancer on the planet. Not Top Predator for nothing... instruct yourself and read J B Calhoun's paper on consequences of overpopulation in rats in over 50 experiments over 50 years. Not one colony survived. they reached a maximum and then rapid collapse to zero. They turned against themselves. as are we, if you read the news. And by the way, bud, GOD IS ABOVE ALL AND PREVAILS.
One word and one word only, INCORRECT.
Please fire these type employees with these issues. Outsource the jobs to India. Plenty Indians will do much better job at a fraction of the american salary. Plenty of software engineers and IT professionals in India. Google building is in Bangalore, India.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸 stop the genocide!
Free Palestine from Hamas🇵🇸
From Iran
You're a BOT. COMEBACK when you're a live person ! PLUS SHOW "GRATITUDE" towards these Techies for sacrificing BOTH Their Job's & Freedom For Palestine !
@@TheJorrryALL FASCISTS SUCK BALLS. IDF & HAMAS ARE THE SAME !
@@empsgrr57shulz71"Hey Dummy". If you wanna fight Iran, go for it "on your own" but, the majority of American Citizen's HAVE NO INTEREST IN SUCH !
You are free to say whatever you want. Just as how you are free to face, it's consequence.
Why don't these people protest to Hamas for a peace talk and to release the hostages?
No tech for crimes
All the respect for those young professionals who sacrifice for the defense of Palestinians rights
Now that they lost their jobs they can stage pro-Hamas sit-ins all day long in their tents under a brigde😂😂😂
they didnt sacrifice, they would have quit, if they were sacrificing.
There is nothing professional about these idiots. Evil exists everywhere but this is directed at hatred of Israel.
”they would rather arrest us, than have leadership engage in our demands” what a statement, I guess she thought she ran shit lmao I would’ve fired her too
The tension in her face showed as she made those comments. Perhaps her parents admonished her for bringing them shame, and warned her that she would lose her job. And she might have just received a letter from her management putting her on 'leave' ... all that showed in her face as she made her comments.
of course you would have.
They Never show this on MSM 🇬🇧
I like to say “mainstream media” most people don’t seem to know what MSM stands for just yet
@@user-et7wb3ct3o True, it’s a lazy my Bad
Its all over MSM
Incorrect. I literally got here from the NY Post and a search on Google it's the top video result.
@@meownhouse8809 well it’s not being reported in uk news
Kudos to the people who stands against the injustice.
What injustice
Thank you for taking a stand.
It is sad to see someone use a word (Apartheid/apartness) they do not even know or understand what it refers to.
“Axis of Evil” Washington, London and Tel Aviv !
Plus France, Germany and Jordan too
Also Canada and Australia
So extremist and funny! Hey Juan shouldn't you be registering as an illegal?
Jealousy... what crap whole country do you reside?
@@Sureyoudo 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. 😂 . Back to the unemployment line guys! Thanks for the job openings. Bwahahahhaha!!!
Any person should not work at a place if their values don’t align with the company. They should quit. Period. That’s how it works at any company. It’s not unusual for people to be fired or not hired for not fitting in with company culture. It’s naive and ignorant to think otherwise
Why didn't they just quit, but i bet they would cash that check every Friday. Hypocrites. 28 new job openings
People with conscience, courage and wisdom against mass murderers. Money wins but courage will be remembered. Shame on you Google.
No one will remember these clowns, they are all covering their faces like true cowards
