The answer

The basic ruling is that it is permissible to deal with companies that employ both Arab and Jewish staff, provided that the dealings are not in a forbidden matter. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, dealt with Jews, and he passed away while his shield was mortgaged to a Jew. A condition for your dealings with these companies is that the programs or websites you provide them with are not used for a forbidden purpose. However, a boycott may become obligatory if Muslims believe that not boycotting strengthens enemies against Muslims.
