On Monday, a group of employees called Googlers Against Transphobia and Hate published a petition demanding James be removed from the group.

"In selecting James, Google is making clear that its version of 'ethics' values proximity to power over the wellbeing of trans people, other LGBTQ people, and immigrants," the petition says. "Such a position directly contravenes Google's stated values."
