Microsoft is reportedly blocking employee emails containing the words “Palestine” or “Gaza”
The company spokesman said that emailing large numbers of employees about non-work topics was not appropriate, and that such emails have been sent to employees who had not opted into receiving political issues.
The company has been recently accused of supplying AI technology to the Israeli military, and is now facing protests and calls for boycott from its own employees, ex-employees and the BDS movement.
The BDS movement is calling for a boycott of all Microsoft products, including Xbox and Game Pass.
This news comes just a day after Microsoft cancelled a propaganda event it was due to hold for the Israeli army atop its flagship store in New York.
