As far as I'm aware, google isn't enacting a genocide... as far as I'm aware

Sure, but Google's just doing it because it's profitable, not because they're hell-bent on annihilating an ethnicity /s

Sure, if you remove the profit motive they wouldn't provide resources.

Certainly not morally defensible... but also not outright evil either. Just absent any ethical compass.

IBM supplied the computing machines for the Holocaust, I wouldn't be surprised if Google is giving cloud computing to ICE.

This is a good (but non-exhaustive) list to look through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Gaza_war
