> When news of the pilot project, which is the company’s first with the Defense Department’s Project Maven, was circulated on an internal mailing list, some Google employees were reportedly “outraged” and “concerned” that the company would offer its services for drone-related surveillance technology. I worked for multiple government contractors in the DoD space up until a few years ago and Google worked with us on MULTIPLE contracts. They're outraged and concerned now? What were they 5 years ago? Most of the large tech companies do government contract work for the DoD but it seems like Silicon Valley just forgets this over and over and over again.
