Dr. Omar Suleiman sits down with Paul Biggar for a discussion on the corruption and misuse of technology in enabling the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
In November 2023, Paul Biggar authored a compelling piece titled "I Can't Sleep" and launched "Tech for Palestine" as a response to combat the exploitation of technology in this humanitarian crisis. They also explore how major tech corporations have supported Israel’s actions and suppressed Palestinian voices and dissent.
