You have to admit, "don't be evil" to "we refuse to discuss our ICE contracts" is a hell of an arc
At Google, speech critical of ICE is censored from the company's internal platform, employees who speak out are served with warnings, and leadership refuses to acknowledge a petition that's now gotten 1,200 employee signatures.

Google is stifling anti-ICE speech in the workplace as 1,200 employees call on the company to cut ties
The search giant has made it harder and riskier to protest its policies. Workers are still fighting back. Plus: A community takes down a data center, QuitGPT, and the 5 worst Super Bowl AI ads.

“You’re not alone. You have support of your fellow workers in your company and across the industry. It’s time we take responsibility for how our products are used for surveillance and violence.”

The tide may be turning, Alex says, as ICE violence becomes unignorable, and the threat comes closer to home. ICE is deeply unpopular, and he and other organizers see more workers coming around.

Organizers say that nearly everyone they speak to at the company is against Google's ICE contracts and supports divesting from them. But fear of retaliation, of losing their jobs, is so rampant than only a fraction are willing to come forward to speak out.

I spoke with Alex from @notechforapartheid.bsky.social, which is behind the petition, and other employees who feel similarly: Google's hardline posture, summary firing of employees who protested the company's contracts with the Israeli military, and recent layoffs, have created a climate of fear.

Google used to be known for fostering an open workplace; employees were free to critique and poke fun of the company's policies. Now, with Google's open alignment with the Trump White House and a hardline stance on protest, it swiftly stifles dissent as its employees question ties with ICE.

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.
I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hala. Hala is only 16 years old and is a very popular singer in Gaza (you should check her out www.instagram.com/hala_e_omar?...). Her and her family are being forced to flee Gaza City and live in tents in the South. They need help ❤️
