A former Irish employee of an Israeli tech firm who was unfairly fired from her job after calling Israel “a terrorist state” on social media, has claimed she feels “blacklisted” from working in the tech sector over the controversy.

Courtney Carey was sacked from her position with Wix Online Platforms, where she had worked for 4-and-a-half years, on October 23, 2023 for alleged gross misconduct.
