(JTA) – A Jewish Google executive, Dan Fredinburg, was killed in an avalanche triggered on Mount Everest by the earthquake in Nepal. Fredinburg, the head of privacy for Google X, the company’s ideas lab, suffered a major head injury in the avalanche and died, his younger sister Megan reported in a post on his Instagram account. He was 33. Fredinburg, who was Jewish, had been scaling Everest for the past three weeks with an expedition team arranged by a U.K.-based tour company. Two other Google employees on the expedition and their guides survived the avalanche. Fredinburg had worked at Google since 2007. He was co-founder of Google Adventure, which was designed to bring Google Street View to exotic locations, including Mount Everest.
