Stanford Students Walked Out on Sundar Pichai's Commencement Speech

Over 100 Stanford students staged a walkout during Google CEO Sundar Pichai's commencement speech to protest the company's military contracts and deals with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Organizers Amanda Campos and Eva Jones led the demonstration, drawing parallels to conscription by characterizing Google's involvement with these agencies as ethically problematic. The protest highlighted growing student activism around corporate responsibility and the role of tech companies in military and immigration enforcement.
