Microsoft forbidden its staff to write about Palestine

Yevgeny Demkivsky Author of news Mezha.media and GIK. I write about technologies, cinema and games. Perhaps about games with a little more passion.

Microsoft has started to block emails that contain the words “Palestine”, “Gaza” or “Genocide”. According to the protest group No azure for Apartheid (Noaa), dozens of employees were unable to send such letters both inside the company and the outside. The Verge writes about it.

NOAA organizers stated that the words “Israel” or alternative writing “P4Lestine” do not cause filtration. The group believes that it is an attempt to suppress freedom of speech and discriminate Palestinian workers and their allies.

“Mass sending letters to topics not related to work is unacceptable. We have a separate platform for such discussions among employees who have expressed interest in them,” the Microsoft representative confirmed the reporting report.

Restrictions were imposed on the background of employees’ protests against Microsoft contracts with the Israeli government. During the Build 2025 conference, one of the employees, Joe Lopez, interrupted Satya Nadella’s speech “How about showing that Azure supports Israel’s military crimes?” – For which he was released after the mass mailing of the inner sheet. The following days protesters interrupted other performances.

Earlier this week, Microsoft confirmed the existence of contracts with Israel, but assured that the internal and external investigations did not find “no evidence” that its tools were used for “a purposeful task of harming people” in gas.
