Microsoft Exec’s Office Invaded: Protesters Go Full ‘Brad-storm’
In a blockbuster twist at Microsoft HQ, Building 34—home to president Brad Smith—was briefly taken hostage by a sit-in protest led by current and former employees demanding a corporate breakup with the Israeli government. The bold rebels live-streamed their suave entry on Twitch, turning the scene into a reality show titled 'Breaking Brad.' Catchphrases like 'Brad Smith you can't hide, you're supporting genocide!' echoed through the halls, accompanied by sneaky noisemaker symphonies. This high-tech drama not only locked down the building but unlocked a viral moment proving activism now comes DRM-free and internet-streamed.
