Google has withdrawn from bidding on a multi-billion US military cloud contract, citing corporate values. And a lack of certification.

The Chocolate Factory confirmed in a statement on Monday that it has dropped out of the race against tech giants to bag the Pentagon's US$10bn Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (JEDI) cloud contract – and while it led with values as the reason for walking away, it also said it doubted it could achieve the necessary certifications.
