Microsoft has locked down a building at its headquarters after protesters managed to get inside the office of the company’s president. Current and former Microsoft workers held a sit-in protest inside Brad Smith’s office in Building 34, demanding that the company cut ties with the Israeli government.
The protesters live streamed themselves on Twitch entering Building 34, a building that houses Microsoft executives, and heading to Smith’s office, before unfurling banners during the sit-in protest. “Brad Smith you can’t hide, you’re supporting genocide!” shouted some of the protesters inside Smith’s office. Noisemakers were also been attached to balloons in the entrance of Building 34. One notice reads “The People’s Court Summons Bradford Lee Smith on Charges of Crimes Against Humanity.”
