Microsoft banned Palestinians from its products because they called their families in Gaza on Skype.

I’ve met Palestinians who’ve lost their relatives in Israeli bombardments. People involved in Gaza humanitarian aid.

American corporations can cut them off from essential internet/communication services on a lark.

@Akshay How big companies can take hostage of your life.

@Akshay WHAT HOW IS THAT EVEN LEGAL? (But I suppose it unfortunately is 😡)

@Akshay their company they can turn around customers the same way builders and plumbers do. No point getting upset or angry. Always have a back up.

How are people not swayed by this abject cruelty, this blatant #racism... This is brutal #fascism from a $3,000,000,000,000 dollar "company".

How can anyone justify supporting #microsoft, knowing this, or any of the hundreds of other horrors they have inflicted upon humanity...
