Google employees protest company’s ties with Israeli government

Groups of employees of the tech giant have entered two of the company’s offices, one in Sunnyvale, California, and one in New York City.
The protesters at the California office say they will not leave until Google pulls out of a $1.2bn contract it shares with Amazon, that would see it provide the Israeli government with cloud services and data centres.
Some at the company have long opposed the contract, known as “Nimbus”, but the conflict within the tech giant has expanded since Israel began its assault on Gaza.

Ramesh Srinivasan is a Professor at the UCLA department of Information Studies. He joins us live from Los Angeles to discuss the latest updates. He says Project Nimbus is known for its lack of transparency.
