I mentioned before in November, it's absolutely heartbreaking to see HoloLens used this way. This is not what I evangelized. I encourage fellow Microsoft employees to sign the letter. Thread of some of my feelings why incoming. https://t.co/1lcdIrtenv

I wonder if these Microsoft workers or the Google workers who opposed Project Maven have thought through what happens to our national defense if our best technology companies aren't willing to engage? https://t.co/gimvxnWV0p

"We are alarmed that Microsoft is working to provide weapons technology to the U.S. Military, helping one country's government "increase lethality" using tools we built. We did not sign up to develop weapons, and we demand a say in how our work is used" https://t.co/eIhY7MFn0W

MEANWHILE, employees over at Microsoft are demanding the company cancel its contract with the US Army. MSFT got $480m to develop Hololens into a tool train more lethal soldiers. Their petition is gaining sigs as we speak: https://t.co/Nx92DWslYm

When big tech refuses to work with the US military, they give a de facto advantage to countries like Russia and China.

Empowering aggressive, expansionist countries by weakening US forces makes conflict and oppression more likely, not less. https://t.co/v58hXUrLpQ
The United States needs the support of our greatest tech companies more than @Microsoft needs these 50 workers. The future of combat will include augmentation of all our senses, and @HoloLens is a great step towards that future. https://t.co/rPMx1YoHRG
