Shutdown Microsoft Build
Microsoft is providing the Israeli military with the AI and cloud tools it needs to wage genocide on Palestinians.
But right now, we have a rare chance to escalate the pressure: Microsoft’s Build conference — the 'Coachella' of the tech world — is kicking off this week. And it’s the perfect stage to confront executives and expose their role in fueling Israel’s genocide in front of the world’s top tech leaders, investors, and media watching.
Microsoft workers have bravely spoken out, risking their jobs to save lives in Gaza. It’s on us to back them up — let’s make Build 2025 the moment Microsoft can’t ignore.

STEP 2: Target Microsoft's "Responsible AI executive"

STEP 3: 🔥 Storm Microsoft's official channels
Microsoft is terrified the disruption will spread online — and ruin their carefully staged conference. Help make that fear real by flooding their pages with comments.
Leave comments on Microsoft’s official pages:
Suggested Messaging: The more personal your message, the more powerful it will be.
- Microsoft faces a choice: lead as a responsible tech company, or be remembered as an arms manufacturer enabling atrocities in Gaza.
- Echo Microsoft employees’ calls for the company to cut ties with the Israeli military and stop providing the technology fueling the genocide.
- Point to history: Microsoft divested from apartheid South Africa — it’s time to show the same leadership now.
- Urge execs to consider their legacy: be remembered for enabling the deadliest assault on children in modern history — or for stepping up when it mattered most?
Thank you so much!
