Google has officially removed Pride Month-related content from Google Calendar after receiving a request from Elon Musk. This move quickly attracted public attention and sparked much controversy on social media platforms. Many users expressed their disappointment with this decision, saying it was a step backwards in honoring the LGBTQ+ community.
The incident stemmed from a series of statements by Elon Musk on social media, in which he expressed his disagreement with content related to Pride Month appearing on technology platforms. This led to significant pressure on major technology companies, including Google. Shortly after, users noticed that Pride Month was removed from Google Calendar, one of the most popular time-management services in the world.

Public reaction is divided into two mixed opinions. Some users believe that Google has the right to decide the content displayed on its platform, and this does not mean the company is against the LGBTQ+ community. However, most LGBTQ+ support organizations have criticized this decision, saying that Google is influenced by external pressures rather than maintaining neutrality on social issues.

Over the years, Google has always been known as one of the tech companies with open policies, supporting diversity and inclusion. The removal of content related to Pride Month has many people questioning the company’s stance on important social issues. Some Google employees also expressed dissatisfaction with this decision and asked the company to provide an official explanation.
Although there’s no official response from Google regarding the exact cause of this decision, the incident continues to attract media and user attention worldwide. The question is whether this is a sign of a larger shift in tech corporations’ approach to social issues.
