The genocide in Gaza is the biggest event of our (life)time which will likely define this whole decade geopolitically. There is a severe lack of news on the technology side about it.
There’s a lot of strife inside the tech world from people who work for both big multinationals and startups, over their company’s continued dealing with Israel, and especially so with their armed forces. It’s not well covered, because tech journalism is - frankly very corporate friendly - because it relies on access to sources, and so is very subject to access journalism that self-censors and chills dissent or criticism.
Someone who joined on to work on population mapping for vaccine coverage planning, or a cloud service engineer, may strongly object to their work being contorted and sold off to enable and supercharge a genocide.

How is this ´the technology side of it´, besides that the comment is made by someone that works in tech?
