لا يمكن للشركات أن تختبئ وراء ذريعة "الحياد" وتواصل العمل كأن شيئا لم يحدث. الصمت والتواطؤ بدافع الربح يجعلانها شركاء مباشرين في الانتهاكات. تعرفوا أكثر على عملنا: https://t.co/pZ6BU1DSdT

لكن القضية لا تتعلق بشركة واحدة، بل بمنظومة تكنولوجية كاملة تجني الأرباح من الحرب وتُطبع القمع وتقوض المساءلة. على شركات التكنولوجيا أن تضع حقوق الإنسان ضمن أولوياتها. فالآن، أكثر من أي وقت مضى، الوقت حان لهدنة رقمية. https://t.co/753rF1Dpqh

بعد ضغوط متزايدة أعلنت مايكروسوفت مؤخراً سحب خدماتها السحابية وتقنيات الذكاء الاصطناعي من الجيش الإسرائيلي لتصبح أول شركة أمريكية تقدم هذه الخطوة. لكن ذلك لا يمحو سنوات من التواطؤ، ولا الاحتجاجات التي تم تجاهلها، ولا الأرباح التي فضلت على حقوق الإنسان. https://t.co/d6ULS7b4GA

لنأخذ مايكروسوفت كمثال: فشراكاتها وصفقاتها وتقنياتها ارتبط اسمها منذ سنوات بالمراقبة والقمع والدمار في غزة. https://t.co/PEIrTPQkLf

قرارات الشركات اليوم تحدد من يعيش ومن يموت في غزة. فرغم أن شركات التكنولوجيا الكبرى تتحمل مسؤوليات واضحة تجاه حقوق الإنسان إلا أنها تتجاهلها رغم تحذيرات محكمة العدل الدولية والأمم المتحدة، مخاطرة بالتواطؤ في ارتكاب الجرائم، بما في ذلك الإبادة الجماعية. https://t.co/WLF1HwUWKE

منذ عامين وأكثر، لم تعتمد السلطات الإسرائيلية على القوة العسكرية فقط، بل استعانت أيضاً بشركات التكنولوجيا في حربها على غزة. فالاستهداف القائم على الذكاء الاصطناعي والهجمات على البنية التحتية وحجب الإنترنت عمق معاناة الفلسطينيين وسط الإبادة الجماعية.🧵 https://t.co/j903Atoy1L

Our message is clear: companies cannot hide behind “neutrality” and continue “business as usual.” Silence and profit-driven complicity make them active participants in violations. Learn more about our work ⬇️ https://t.co/pZ6BU1DSdT

This goes beyond one company. It’s a tech ecosystem profiting from war, normalizing repression, and erasing accountability. Tech must uphold human rights. Instead, too many choose “business as usual.” More than ever, it’s time for a digital ceasefire. https://t.co/753rF1Dpqh

But after pressure, the company just withdrew cloud + AI services from the Israeli military — a first among US tech firms amidst Israel’s genocide in Gaza. But one step can’t erase complicity, ignored protests, and profit over rights. https://t.co/d6ULS7b4GA

Let’s shine a light on Microsoft: through partnerships, deals, and their own products, the company’s technology has long been tied to surveillance, repression, and destruction in Gaza. https://t.co/PEIrTPQkLf

Corporate decisions shape life-and-death realities in Gaza. Platforms and tech giants have clear human rights duties, yet ignore them. Despite the ICJ and UN warnings, tech firms partnering with Israel risk aiding and abetting crimes, including genocide. https://t.co/WLF1HwUWKE

Big Tech is profiting from war. For more than 2 years, Israeli authorities have relied not only on military force. AI-enabled targeting, attacks on telecom infrastructure, and shutdowns are deepening the suffering of Palestinians amidst genocide. 🔽🧵 https://t.co/j903Atoy1L
