It’s such a bad lovely rebrand everyone has to do the X/Twitter thing because if you did “X files lawsuit against CCDH” it’d confuse most people

1. Defendants Center for Countering Digital Hate, Inc. (“CCDH US”) and Center for Countering Digital Hate Ltd. (“CCDH UK,” collectively “CCDH”) -- activist organizations masquerading as research agencies, funded and supported by unknown organizations, individuals and potentially even foreign governments with ties to legacy media companies --

3. CCDH’s underhanded conduct is nothing new. It has a history of using similar tactics not for the goal of combating hate, but rather to censor a wide range of viewpoints on social media with which it disagrees. CCDH’s efforts often rely on obtaining and intentionally mischaracterizing data in “research” reports it prepares to make it appear as if a few specific users (often media organizations and high profile individuals) are overwhelming social media platforms with content that CCDH deems harmful. CCDH uses those reports to demand that platform providers kick the targeted users off of their platforms, thus silencing their viewpoints on broadly debated topics such as COVID-19 vaccines, reproductive healthcare, and climate change.

so it's okay to be racist as long as you're not "overwhelming social media platforms"?

Did you make this data publicly available on your website?

Yes

But you expect 3rd parties to not access that public data?

Yes

oh word? what viewpoints is CCDH targeting? surely they're fact-based and not vile or totally unhinged at all, why else would you bring this suit

"The CCDH illegally obtained X data in two ways - scraping via bots, and through gaining unauthorised access by a 3rd party to data given securely to Brandwatch. This also involved violating the X Terms of service which it agreed to on creating its account."

I can't believe they would illegally call our platform bigoted by looking at it.

elon's complaint was handled by a white-shoe ny law firm, so i guess his pitch to recruit his own team of street-fighting litigators didn't work out
