We're barrelling pretty fast into annual report season, so worth catching up on this v good summary of everything tech-climate-accountability (which also mentions the latest work I led on greenwashing narratives!)
This is horrifying.
Expecting people to carry on working around the body of a dead colleague is egregious and unacceptable. We stand in solidarity with the workers in Troutdale, and will continue fighting every day for an Amazon that respects the people who work for it.

Oh HELL no.
With low snowpack, our hydro is becoming less reliable. Behind-the-meter power nearly always means gas. And for what? The suicide advice/porn-making/job-killing machine?
Just: no.

The sub-head says it all:
"Investors urged to reject proposal for more disclosure on whether AWS expansion risks climate goals."
Great article on tech workers, cafeteria workers, and solidarity.
tl;dr—when companies don't take care of their workers, we'll take care of each other.

Win Back Our Future, AECJ 2026 Campaign Kickoff April 25th, 11am-1pm PT in person (Seattle) and on zoom. Reservation required: aecj.info/rsvp425 A mass movement to win back the future is building, and tech workers have a role to play. Amazon and AI could destabilize our work, our climate, and our future--or instead, as workers, we can take action and build something better. Get plugged in on April 25.
Amazon employees! Let's win back the future from our AI overlords. We can't let them destroy our climate, our jobs, our water supplies and more...all in the service of a dystopian project of surveillance and warmongering.
Please join us on April 25, and RSVP: AECJ.info/RSVP425

The "careful" "AI Safety" company that just accidentally leaked its entire source code to the world is the one that African governments are entering into agreements with to include in infrastructures from health to god knows what.

This is like saying: in another year, we're selling all the roads to Amazon. Figure out your own way to get around.

If you are anywhere near in Vancouver, you really don't want to miss our event with Karen Hao about her brilliant book "Empire of AI" at the Chan Centre in a couple of weeks.
There are still a few tickets left, but they are going fast!
Again re-stating my conspiracy theory that all of this serves as a way to pressure companies to build on-site behind-the-meter fossil gas generation as part of a crony capitalist deal with the fossil fuel companies to fabricate demand for their expensive product

One of MANY instances lately where it's obvious the American people are 1000% clearer than our "leaders" are on where current trends are taking us.
"Politicians who choose to do the bidding of Big Tech at the expense of hardworking Americans will pay a huge political price.” (His lips, god's ears.)
“many of …same discriminatory attitudes that animated eugenicists in the past (e.g., racism, xenophobia, classism, ableism, and sexism) remain widespread within the movement to build AGI… while using the language of “safety” and “benefiting humanity” to evade accountability.” #q Gebru & Torres
A colorful flyer that reads: How Amazon supports ICE's lawless, violent deportation campaign: • Signed $64 million in new contracts with ICE and CBP • Partners with Palantir, which builds ICE surveillance & targeting tools • Created a partnership between Ring & Flock. Flock gives access to ICE/CBP • Spending up to $50 billion expanding Al infrastructure and tools for the federal government On the other side: We demand that Amazon (followed by three checkboxes). Unchecked: Stop hosting ICE and CBP on AWS. Unchecked: End partnerships with Palantir that power deportations and surveillance. Checked: End Ring's partnership with flock. The next line says: one down, two to go! There's a QR codes for Amazon employees who want to learn more. And finally the logos for Troublemakers, 350 Seattle, Seattle Indivisible, Washington for All, Seattle DSA, Southend Indivisible, and Amazon Employees for Climate Justice.
Today at 1pm at the Spheres, 2111 7th Ave, Seattle!
Make sure Amazon understands that it's their workers and customers (the world around) who determine whether the company thrives. Dystopia is not a good plan, and they need to dump ICE, and honor their climate goals too!
Guys, they're scared (and we're going to win):
“Recently, the moderation team started banning memes and comments about ICE on the internal meme platform."
One down, two to go!
Amazon just announced that it’s meeting our third demand.
That’s great…but we're far from where we need to be. Amazon needs to understand who REALLY decides whether it thrives: its workers & its customers. No more dystopia.
Join us tomorrow!
Amazon has been cozying up to the regime—and doing its dirty work too.
Tomorrow, let's remind them who really decides whether the company thrives: workers and customers the world around. They've gotta clean up their act. #DumpICE
