Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

apnews.com/article/california-farm-shooting-farmworker-lawsuit-2e1979754372bd095d72240f192682bd
Quick Glance: Legal Action Following Survival of Mass Shooting at Northern California Mushroom Farm

- Pedro Romero Perez, 24, was inside a shipping container serving as a home for him and his brother when the tragic incident occurred at California Terra Gardens in Half Moon Bay. Chunli Zhao intruded and opened fire, resulting in the death of Jose Romero Perez and Pedro being shot five times, including once in the face.
- The lawsuit filed by Pedro Romero Perez and another lawsuit brought by his brother's wife and children against California Terra Garden, Inc. and Xianmin Guan, an owner, highlight a documented history of violence at the farm. It is asserted that the company failed to implement protective measures for the workers after a prior shooting involving a former manager on the premises in July 2022.

Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil
- A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.
- Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.
- Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.
- Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.
