**Sundar Pichai Met With Protests at Stanford Commencement**
Google CEO Sundar Pichai’s address at Stanford University’s graduation ceremony was met with significant student protest, including boos and a walkout, on Sunday. The demonstration stemmed from widespread discontent over Google’s ongoing business ties with the Israeli government and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
As Pichai began his commencement speech, a visible contingent of graduates rose and exited the ceremony, while others voiced their disapproval through audible boos. The protest highlights growing activism within academic communities against corporations perceived to be complicit in human rights issues, and it marks a notable public rebuke for one of Silicon Valley’s most prominent figures.
