UK NGO sued over censorship, U.S. 'election meddling' | 31 Oct 2024 | The UK-based Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) has colluded with Washington to censor Americans and worked to influence the current presidential election on behalf of Democrats as an unregistered foreign agent, America First Legal has alleged. The pro-Republican legal group has formally requested the US Department of Justice to investigate CCDH as "agents of a foreign principal" that must comply with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). "Our investigation has uncovered shocking details about a foreign organization's influence over the Biden-Harris Administration and numerous state governments," AFL's Gene Hamilton said in a statement on Thursday, claiming that the group's stated goals "appear to be to stop Americans from exercising a fundamental right guaranteed against governmental interference by the First Amendment." According to the AFL, CCDH has "promoted unconstitutional censorship on social media platforms for years."
