The Censorship Industrial Complex
Transcipt from Michael Shellenberger’s video:
I speak to you today about an extremely grave issue.
For the last several months my colleagues and I have discovered the existence of a Censorship Industrial Complex, which consists of U.S. and other government agencies, private sector think tanks, and academic institutions that are working together to spy on and censor ordinary citizens for constitutionally-protected speech online.
We can’t do this work alone.
We need to hear directly from you if you work for the U.S. government Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Atlantic Council, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, Graphika, Stanford Internet Observatory, University of Washington, Center for American Progress, or the Center for Countering Digital Hate Online, or any other organization that claims to be fighting misinformation, disinformation, or fighting online hate.
These organizations are threatening the very foundation of our democracy and our freedom.
We’ve assembled a world class legal team to protect whistleblowers, and we will do everything in our power to protect you and others that come forward with vital information.
We can’t do this work alone. Please. You may email me on my encrypted email: michaelshellenberger@proton.me
I look forward to hearing from you.
