The Google parent company alphabet posted an internal rule to ban Google and its subsidiaries from political debates, Bloomberg News and US IT media reported on Wednesday.

Google's move is quite different from the company's usual atmosphere, which has emphasized an "open culture" within the organization, Bloomberg said.

Internal rules, called the Community Guidelines, mean that Google employees should not engage in political debates that interfere with the company's work, and they are responsible for what they say in the office.

Google also said it plans to develop a separate means of identifying employees who posted internal postings on the board.

A Google official added that he plans to create a management team that monitors the chat board.

The official told Bloomberg that "sharing information and ideas for the development of the community is a separate thing, but angered political debate that is disruptive to work is unhelpful." "I'm doing my job in a literal role."

Google's founding philosophy has encouraged employees to actively interact and actively protest against managers' misguided decisions.

However, due to the frequent occurrence of this free-spirited corporate culture, the company's executives seemed to have curbed their employees' involvement in the political debate.

Google has been a big backlash by internal employees in its censorship guidelines for the Chinese government's censorship of search engines, and has been controversial over a contract with the Pentagon for artificial intelligence (AI).

Google engineer Irene Kneb told Bloomberg: "This internal rule seems to be intended to silence the opposition in the organization." "Google's open culture has virtually come to an end. It seems to be ahead. "
