Reuters reports that around 100 people made it into the construction site, with some scaling a crane to place a “fuck AI” banner. Protesters also unfurled a “Microsoft powers genocide” banner on the construction site, and chanted “Microsoft has got to go” and “free Palestine.”
I’m not unsympathetic to their cause, but I do expect that each and every one of these protesters then also boycotts all of Microsoft’s products; otherwise it would be hypocritical. In the end, that, if done en masse, will hit them harder than some banners…
