Over 600 Google Workers Urge the Company to Cut Ties With Israeli Tech Conference
In a letter addressed to Google executives, over 600 employees of the tech giant have called for the company to end its partnership with an Israeli tech conference due to concerns about human rights violations in the region.
The workers argue that by participating in the conference, Google is indirectly supporting the Israeli government’s policies towards Palestinians and contributing to the ongoing conflict in the region.
The letter also calls for Google to take a stand against what the employees see as unjust practices and violations of international law by the Israeli government.
Google has not yet responded to the letter, but the employees are hopeful that their voices will be heard and that the company will reconsider its involvement in the tech conference.
