⚠️ Heads up: this article is from our "experimental era" — a beautiful mess of enthusiasm ✨, caffeine ☕, and user-submitted chaos 🤹. We kept it because it’s part of our journey 🛤️ (and hey, everyone has awkward teenage years 😅).

More than 600 Google employees have signed a letter demanding that Google ends its sponsorship of the Mind the Tech conference promoting the Israeli tech industry in New York. The letter highlights concerns over the situation in Gaza and calls for solidarity among tech workers. The event faced disruptions from a Google engineer and anti-Zionist groups. The letter also criticizes Google's cloud computing contract with Israel's government. The call to withdraw sponsorship reflects a growing opposition within Google against its association with Israel's government.
