Microsoft dismissed two software engineers, Ibtihal Aboussad and Vaniya Agrawal, on Monday for their protest actions against the company's dealings with the Israeli military during last week's Microsoft Copilot launch and 50th anniversary event. The protesters halted the CEO's speech and levied accusations against the company. Microsoft emphasized that, while the protesters had the right to voice their concerns, their actions were deemed excessively radical and caused significant disruption.
