Скачать или смотреть How can tech help Palestine? | Panel discussion with Paul Biggar

At Web Summit Qatar in Doha, Middle East Eye’s Mohamed Hashem sits down with Paul Biggar, founder of Tech for Palestine, to examine the big tech industry’s role in the genocide in Gaza. Biggar asserts that major corporations, including Google, Microsoft, and Palantir, are directly complicit by providing the technical infrastructure used by Israel to carry out crimes against humanity.

The discussion explores the systemic shift of tech power over the last two decades, detailing how the sector has moved from an alternative ecosystem to one that aligns with billionaire interests and government oppression. Biggar outlines the necessity of "ethical tech" that prioritises human rights over profit and explains how Tech for Palestine operates as an incubator for advocacy projects, including widespread boycott and divestment tools.
