Transparently …: Google co-founder Sergey Brin slams UN report on technology companies and Gaza

Google co-founder Sergey Brin has slammed a recent United Nations (UN) report on technology companies and Gaza. In a message posted on an internal Google forum, Brin reportedly told employees that the UN report is “Transparently Antisemitic”. This statement comes after a UN report alleged that several major global corporations, including Big Tech companies, have profited from Israel’s actions in Gaza. Brin’s comments, seen in internal messages from Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) arm DeepMind and shared with The Washington Post, directly addressed the UN report. He wrote, “With all due respect, throwing around the term genocide in relation to Gaza is deeply offensive to many Jewish people who have suffered actual genocides.”

“I would also be careful citing transparently antisemitic organisations like the UN in relation to these issues,” Brin added.
