Wow. Hundreds of Amazon climate activists plan to publicly calling out their company in an unprecedented mass defiance on the tech giant’s new(ly enforced?) communications policy ? https://t.co/p0khPewvl7

It is honestly worth reading each and every one of these. They cover a variety of topics and the employees are putting a lot on the line by attaching their names.

It's our moral responsibility to speak up, and the changes to the communications policy are censoring us from exercising that responsibility. The climate crisis poses an unprecedented threat to humanity; now is not the time to silence employees.https://t.co/0h3L7l3BNv

It is unacceptable that Amazon is using its communications policy to threaten workers who are speaking out about the work they are doing, while ignoring their concerns about climate justice, collaboration with ICE, and facial recognition tech.#NoTechForICE https://t.co/MBXlq1SjQJ
