Paid articlePaidQuick 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.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.

cnbc.com/2024/03/20/reddit-power-users-balk-at-chance-to-participate-in-ipo-as-debut-nears.html
Quick Glance: Reddit Shares Surge 48% in Market Debut
- Reddit shares ended their first day of trading in New York up 48 per cent, signaling that investor appetite for initial public offerings of promising yet loss-making companies could be returning.

- Shares of Reddit opened on the New York Stock Exchange at $47 and surged to $50.44 after pricing at $34 in the IPO.
- Reddit's entry into public markets was long overdue, and although the allocation of shares to users and retailers poses risks, the extremely bullish sentiment from retail traders on platforms like Stocktwits indicates that the cult brand Reddit continues to hold a significant cultural presence in the social media world.
