From the article: Google has generally been a strong advocate of net neutrality but the OccupyGoogle protestors argue the company could be doing more to champion the cause at this critical moment – hence their occupation of Mountain View HQ.

I'm confused. Is it smart to find someone who is generally on your side and then set up camps on their campus and disrupt them... calling for them to do more? Isn't the Occupy movement traditionally where you occupy the space of entities you oppose and try to make them suffer until they change? It doesn't makes sense to do that to someone you want on your side. I don't get it.

Did this protest make it into the event? I did hear some yelling during one of the keynote talks.

The yelling during the keynote (at least the second one) was someone protecting killing robots and NSA integration.
