Microsoft Requests FBI Help To Shut Down Anti-Genocide Protests: Report

 Microsoft Requests FBI Help To Shut Down Anti-Genocide Protests: Report

Current and former employees say Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform is aiding the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza

Microsoft has asked the FBI for assistance in monitoring demonstrations by employees demanding the company cut its ties with Israel, according to documents cited in a Bloomberg report published on 26 August.

In emails seen by Bloomberg, a company director of investigations asked the FBI for intelligence on planned demonstrations.

The official highlighted former employee Hossam Nasr as “quite active in his posts targeting Microsoft and that we are complicit in genocide,” and noted the company had identified a handful of employees tied to the protests, including one of their children.

The FBI’s Seattle office said it respects the right to peaceful protest and only acts on criminal activity or threats to national security. The bureau declined to confirm any interactions with Microsoft.

Last week, 20 people were arrested at the company’s Redmond headquarters for demonstrating and blocking the plaza entrance. Protesters declared a “liberated zone,” set up tents, chanted, linked arms, refused police orders, and called on colleagues to join them.
