EXCLUSIVE: Leaked Messages Show Google Employees Freaking Out Over Heritage Foundation Link

Internal discussion threads exclusively obtained by Breitbart News shows Google employees in meltdown over the tech giant’s decision to include the president of the conservative Heritage Foundation, Kay Coles James, on an artificial intelligence advisory council. Multiple Google employees in the thread also engaged in outright smears against the Heritage Foundation. Google employees accused the think-tank of transphobia, homophobia, and “extremism,” of viewing LGBT people as “sub-human,” questioning their “humanity,” and supporting “exterminationist” views.

“Would we even consider having a virulent anti­-semite on the advisory board? How about an avowed racist or white supremacist?” asked one Google employee. “This seems like a double standard where anti­-LGTBQ positions are tolerated more than other extreme discriminatory views.” “You don’t need racists, white supremacists, exterminationists on the board to know their stances. you can just talk to their targets” insisted another. “It’s so upsetting that some of our leaders overlooked such hateful positions as Kay Cole James and the Heritage foundation have articulated and regularly advocate for,” complained another Google employee. Another employee suggested that the “rhetorical violence” of the Heritage Foundation “translate[s] to real, material violence against trans people, particularly trans women of color.” “There’s no need to have these people in positions of any kind of authority in order to get their views” wrote another. Another Google employee was so incensed by the Heritage Foundation that he suggested another employee who defended the inclusion of Coles James on pragmatic grounds should lose his job. “It’s not snobbery to object to associating with and legitimizing an organization dedicated to eliminating LGBTQ+ people from public life, driving them back into the closet, denying them healthcare, and so on,” raged the employee.

“It’s basic human decency, treating it like a difference of opinion is simply monstrous and I don’t think it belongs on this list, or at Google at all.” “Please feel free to see yourself off this list if all you have to contribute is concern trolling about whether or not we’re pandering to rank bigotry enough. I’m muting you, and I think you should take a long hard look at how you’re behaving here.”

At least one of the Google employees who smeared the Heritage Foundation and its president is a prominent A.I researcher who has attended tech symposiums at the Obama White House. Meredith Wittaker, co-founder of NYU’s A.I. Now Institute and head of two projects at Google, the Open Research Group and the Measurement Lab, is revealed as one of the most vitriolic opponents of conservative involvement in Google A.I. In the thread, Whittaker describes Kay Coles James, a black conservative who leads one of the most influential think-tanks in D.C., as an “outspoken bigot” who supports policies that “dehumanize and marginalize.” In a different leaked discussion thread, Whittaker attacked the idea of viewpoint diversity (the idea that it’s valuable to tolerate and include a variety of ideological and political viewpoints) as “dangerous.”

MIT Cuts Ties with Huawei and ZTE after U.S. Launches Investigations

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology cut ties with Chinese technology manufacturers Huawei and ZTE this week after the US launched federal investigations into both companies. According to reports, Chinese technology manufacturers Huawei and ZTE are facing investigations by the United States governments over alleged sanctions violations. Now, in response to the investigations, the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology is cutting ties with the manufacturers. MIT announced the decision to cut ties in a letter to the community that was released on Wednesday.

“At this time, based on this enhanced review, MIT is not accepting new engagements or renewing existing ones with Huawei and ZTE or their respective subsidiaries due to federal investigations regarding violations of sanction restrictions,” MIT officials wrote in the letter. “Most recently we have determined that engagements with certain countries – currently China [including Hong Kong], Russia and Saudi Arabia – merit additional faculty and administrative review beyond the usual evaluations that all international projects receive,” the letter adds.

The U.S. discovered last year that ZTE had shipped their products to Iran and North Korea, in violation of a pact agreed to not ship goods that originate in the United States to certain countries. As a punishment, ZTE agreed to pay $1.7 billion in penalties. Top executives at Huawei were arrested in Canada in December 2018 and charged with bank and wire fraud in violation of U.S. sanctions against Iran.

A Huawei spokesperson said that the company is disappointed by MIT’s decision to cut ties. The company denies all allegations of wrongdoing. “We’re disappointed by MIT’s decision, but we understand the pressure they’re under at the moment,” the spokesperson said.

New review process for 'elevated-risk' international proposals

Feds Raid Music Producer Mally Mall’s Home for Human Trafficking Investigation

The home of music producer Mally Mall was raided by federal officials alleging he is involved in sexual assault and human trafficking, according to reports. The producer’s L.A. home was raided on Tuesday with federal authorities claiming they were investigating “multiple rapes and human sex trafficking, as well as firearms on the premises,” Page Six reported.

Mall, who has worked with Drake, Tyga, Chris Brown, and Usher, was accused of raping a woman whose videos he allegedly discovered on Youtube. The woman claims that he contacted her and flew her from her home in Texas to L.A., but when she got to his home, he drugged her and then raped her. She also alleges that medical exams showed she had “vaginal trauma” from the attacks.

For his part, Mall claims that the initial sexual encounter was consensual. He claims he has voicemail recordings showing that the woman attempted to blackmail him over the sexual relationship. However, according to anonymous sources close to the investigation, federal authorities have been contacted by three other women who have similar stories about the music producer. The producer was not arrested but was only detained and then released. But the investigation will continue.

Mall’s lawyer insists that the fact that the producer was not arrested is a marker for the truth of the case. “If they had real evidence, they would have arrested him,” Mall’s lawyer told TMZ. “They don’t have evidence. It’s bogus. Period.” Mall may also be in trouble for importing exotic animals. During the raid, several animals were removed from his home, including big cats and monkeys. Mall was charged with trying to pay for a massage with a bag of pot in 2016.
