  7. ‘No restrictions’ and a secret ‘wink’: Inside Israel’s deal with Google, Amazon

    from +972’s Sunday Recap

    Nov. 2, 2025

    In 2021, #Google and #Amazon signed a $1.2 billion contract with the Israeli government, known as #ProjectNimbus, to provide it with advanced cloud computing and AI services — tools that were used during #Israel’s two-year onslaught on the Gaza Strip. ...Yuval Abraham revealed the tech giants agreed to disregard their own terms of service and sidestep legal orders by tipping Israel off if a foreign court demands its data.

  11. Quoting Sergey Brin: "The use of the term genocide in the context of Gaza is very offensive to Jews, I would not rely on an anti-Semitic organization like the UN."

    One might argue that companies profiting from genocide may react defensively... #ProjectNimbus is a $1.2 billion cloud and #AI contract between #Google, #Amazon, and #Israel that has been criticized internationally for enabling Israel's war on #Gaza, including surveillance and AI-driven tactics that contribute to the ongoing #genocide.

    Google is to Israel what #IBM was to #Germany in the 1930s—tech support. See kolektiva.social/@oatmeal/1147

  12. "Before signing its lucrative and controversial Project Nimbus deal with Israel, Google knew it couldn’t control what the nation and its military would do with the powerful cloud-computing technology, a confidential internal report obtained by The Intercept reveals.

    The report makes explicit the extent to which the tech giant understood the risk of providing state-of-the-art cloud and machine learning tools to a nation long accused of systemic human rights violations and wartime atrocities. Not only would Google be unable to fully monitor or prevent Israel from using its software to harm Palestinians, but the report also notes that the contract could obligate Google to stonewall criminal investigations by other nations into Israel’s use of its technology. And it would require close collaboration with the Israeli security establishment — including joint drills and intelligence sharing — that was unprecedented in Google’s deals with other nations.

    A third-party consultant Google hired to vet the deal recommended that the company withhold machine learning and artificial intelligence tools from Israel because of these risk factors.

    Three international law experts who spoke with The Intercept said that Google’s awareness of the risks and foreknowledge that it could not conduct standard due diligence may pose legal liability for the company."

  13. "Today marks one year since workers with No Tech for Apartheid staged sit-ins at Google offices to protest the use of our labor to power the genocide in Gaza, to demand an end the harassment and discrimination of our Palestinian, Muslim, and Arab coworkers, and to pressure executives to address the workplace health and safety crisis that Nimbus has caused. Google retaliated against workers and illegally fired 50 Googlers—including many who did not participate directly in the action.

    In the year since, Google has only deepened its commitment to being a military contractor. Two months ago, in order to take advantage of the federal contracts the corporation can gain under Trump, Google abandoned its pledge not to build AI for weapons or surveillance. In rapid succession, Google then acquired Israeli cloud security start-up Wiz, pursued partnerships with US Customs and Border Patrol to update towers by Israeli war contractor Elbit Systems with AI at the US-Mexico border, and launched an AI partnership with the largest war profiteer in the world: Lockheed Martin.

    Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon are no longer the only war corporations in town; Google and big tech are increasingly eating their lunch. Big tech companies are being pushed by the market to continue to bank returns. But having saturated the consumer and enterprise markets, corporations like Google, in a contentious arms race to dominate the cloud market, have identified the ever-ballooning so-called “defense” budgets of the US and other governments as major pots for profit.

    One thing is clear: We urgently need an AI arms embargo."

  14. Nee, ik ga niet van bank wisselen, maar heb wel flinke kritiek op het feit dat #Triodos nu #GooglePay aanbiedt. #Google is onderdeel van de voor #Trump buigende big-tech-maffia en medeverantwoordelijk voor de #genocide in #Gaza [1].

    Ik hoor Triodos nu zeggen; 'ja maar onze klanten wilden dit graag'. Aan Triodos de opdracht om hun klanten te onderwijzen over het Google-gevaar. Doen ze niet. [2] Helaas zijn er geen andere banken die niet in kapitalistische projecten zoals de #klimaatcrisis en de #wapenindustrie investeren (nee, kom niet met de ASN aanzetten, want dat is de Volksbank). Maar Triodos steunt met het aanbieden van Google Pay dit indirect nu wel. Helaas is het bezitten van een bankrekening een verplichting in deze maatschappij.

  19. In September 2022, conscient Jewish (and non-Jewish) Google workers were already fighting against Project Nimbus.
    They predicted it would become a very efficient, yet deadly, discriminative tool, biased and incredibly dangerous.

    It is enlightening to watch 2022's video by the yardstick of today's Palestinian genocide.
    All the fears and forecasts these activists had or made 18 months ago proved to be right and have happened.

    "A national day of action is planned next Thursday as protests grow against Google’s secretive $1.2 billion program known as Project Nimbus, which will provide advanced artificial intelligence tools to the Israeli government and military.

    We speak with two of the leaders of the protest: Ariel Koren, a former #Google employee who says she was pushed out for her activism, as well as Gabriel Schubiner, who currently works at Google and is an Alphabet Workers Union organizer. ​​”Cloud technology is extremely powerful, and providing that power to a violent military and to an apartheid government is not a neutral act,” says Schubiner on #ProjectNimbus. The pair also detail how workers are rising up against what Koren says is Google’s “culture of retaliation.”
