Elon Musk is being targeted by the ADL as an anti-Semite and traitor to the US because he refuses to censor on demand. If he buys Twitter and reduces censorship, it poses a threat to establishment centers of power. They fear free speech on the internet. They blamed the free internet for Brexit and Trump's election, leading to increased censorship. Elon Musk is one of the few in technology standing up against this censorship.

We opened a center in Silicon Valley back in 2017. The person who runs it is described as “the next Facebook executive.” The organization has software engineers and data scientists working at ADL, and they are actively monitoring various activities and collaborating with multiple platforms. The speaker notes that they are working with all of these platforms: Google, YouTube, Meta, Twitter, Reddit, Steam, and Amazon, and extends the list to include Apple and Zoom. They emphasize that they work with companies from Apple to Zoom and with all of them. The speaker highlights that this collaboration is relevant because they have been working with Twitter since its founding. They state they work with Twitter “now for real” and with both the old regime and the new regime. They specify ongoing communication with an individual named Iqalan.

They describe a monitoring and disruption program with a dedicated apparatus. They have 40 analysts working full time, seven days a week, twenty four hours a day, monitoring extremists online across platforms including social media, messaging apps, video games, cryptocurrency, podcasts, short form video, Wikipedia, and LLMs. They monitor these people and share the intelligence with the FBI. They are monitoring left-wing radicals like the DSA, antiwar activists, and pro-Palestine extremists; right-wing extremists like white supremacists and armed militia groups; political Islamists and Christian nationalists, all of them. They also emphasize training, stating they are the largest trainer of law enforcement in America, training 20,000 officers every year.

Stop Antisemitism was built for confronting the global explosion of Jew hatred unleashed since the attacks of ten seven. Since that day, we have featured more than 1,000 antisemites on our platforms—not theorized about them, not quietly documented them, but featured them publicly, clearly, and with evidence. The results speak for themselves: approximately 400 of these Jew haters have faced real consequences including firings, suspensions, and expulsions. More than 300 remain in an active investigatory state across universities, corporations, DEI departments, unions, hospitals, nonprofits, and yes, federal government agencies. And five arrests to date tied directly to threats and violence of antisemitic conduct we helped expose. This is what accountability looks like. This is what action looks like. This is what pushing back hard looks like against the tidal wave of hate that has consumed The United States and global population. From our founding, Stop Antisemitism has operated on one guiding belief: Antisemitism thrives when there are no consequences. So we created consequences, a lot of them. We created visibility. We turned the spotlight towards those who targeted our community, making silence impossible. On campuses where Jewish students were hunted through libraries, where professors glorified Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists, where mobs shut down our buildings and administrators hid under desks, we stepped in. We documented the offenders. We worked with attorneys, lawmakers, and victim families, and we ensured the message was not unmistakable: If you target Jewish students, your actions will not disappear into the darkness. We will shine a light on you that thanks to Google and SEO, follow you for the rest of your life. When you look for a job, when you look for a spouse, when you look for a nanny, when you look for anything, our work will always be documented. Again, thanks to Google and SEO. In corporations where DEI leaders smeared Israel, excused Hamas, we pressured CEOs; some resigned, many were terminated, but policies were changed thankfully from governmental to art institutions. Online, where anonymous accounts spread violent threats, we traced patterns, elevated evidence, and worked with authorities leading to arrests from Florida, South Carolina, New York, California, and Texas. And we're not slowing down sadly. Today, Stop Antisemitism, I'm proud to say, runs one of the most robust antisemitic enforcement operations in The United States, monitoring campuses, digital networks, activist groups, and public officials, documenting incidents in real time and mobilizing millions of people, of allies that are quietly by our side. But the fight is bigger than the exposure, and it's about securing a future—A future where Jewish students can walk across a quad without being screamed at. A future where employers understand that anti Semitism is not activism. It's bigotry and it will cause you to lose your job. A future where fact, not propaganda, shapes policy. A future where global institutions from Google to chat, GPT, from governments to universities to media, finally treats Jew hatred with the seriousness of other minority-targeted hate. To get there, we need three things: action, real action as I listed; accountability; relentless vigilance, because antisemitism does not take breaks. It doesn't wait for elections. It doesn't disappear because we are exhausted and tired, and when I tell you myself and my team are exhausted and tired, that's the least of it. Stop antisemitism has never been more essential, more strategic, or more effective than it is now, but we cannot do this alone. The demand, the volume of tips, the number of investigations, sadly, it continues to grow instead of decrease. If we want a safer future for the Jewish people, this is the moment to stand together and act. We have to push harder to make it clear that Jewish safety is a nonnegotiable. Tonight, I'm asking you to always be in the fight with us, not just in spirit, but in true action. Participate in calls to action. Write letters to your governmental officials. Speak to the teachers and the college administrators that are making, if it's not your friends and kids, it's making other community members feel unsafe. When we act, lives change, And antisemites learn, sometimes for the very first time in their lives and history, that targeting Jews will come at a price, and together we can ensure that Jew hatred never goes unanswered again. As a former refugee from The USSR, I say this with all of my heart, God bless The United States, God bless Israel, and I'm Israel High. Thank you so much.

Paul Revere is introduced, and the speaker says there is “no hostility” while presenting “the facts” about Buckeye, Arizona and related law enforcement and technology connections. The speaker claims Buckeye police are sent to the AZ DPS for academy training. They state AZ DPS has a long-standing relationship with JINSA (Jewish Institute for National Security of America) and participates in a law enforcement exchange program called LEAP, described as facilitating training between US law enforcement and Israeli security and intelligence. The speaker then claims Buckeye Police swapped technology from Motorola Solutions, Inc. to Axon (for body cams, dash cams, radios, and related equipment). They claim Gregory Brown, chairman and CEO of Motorola Solutions, is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and is heavily invested in Palantir, which they connect to Peter Thiel and Alex Karp. The speaker further claims Motorola maintains an Israeli subsidiary (Motorola Solutions Israel Limited), recruits and employs Israeli intelligence from IDF and intelligence unit 8200, and that Flock cameras are being placed throughout the town and city “under the guise of safety,” including throughout the entire country. They claim Andreessen Horowitz (A16Z) is the lead investor in Flock and also in Skydio drones that Buckeye has had since 2023. The speaker states Andreessen Horowitz recruits Israeli intelligence for early-stage startups, and references that Ben Horowitz’s grandparents were Russian Jews who were dedicated members of the American Communist Party. The speaker then says Buckeye City Council approved a $1.5 million, six-year contract with Brink Drones, founded by Blake Resnick (described as a Peter Thiel Fellowship recipient), and that Brink received those funds to start. The speaker claims Aaron Price Wright invested in Brink, became a partner at Andreessen Horowitz, and spent much of her career at Palantir. The speaker also says City Council approved a $525,000 DHS drone request to receive seven drones from DHS, which the speaker says get their drones from the DoD, and the DoD contracted with Israeli drone company Extend, which the speaker quotes from the Jerusalem Post as specializing in “one way close quarter combat kill drones.” The speaker claims Carbine is an Israeli cybersecurity and cloud-native emergency response startup providing software to police and 911 dispatchers throughout Arizona and the United States. They assert that these companies are tied to Israeli military intelligence, Palantir, and Jeffrey Epstein, and they link this to explosive pagers and allegations involving genocide, 9/11, and COVID bioterrorism. The speaker says they attempted to set up a meeting with Sheriff Jerry Sheridan three times and did not receive a call back, adding that former Sheriff Joe Arpaio told them Sheridan traveled to Israel as a veteran. The speaker references an oath to support and defend the Constitution and says it does not include asking local government representatives or law enforcement for permission. They then state Buckeye has been “officially notified” of guilt of felony crimes under US law code: Title 18, Section 241 (Conspiracy Against Rights), 242 (Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law), 1621 (General Perjury), and 2381 (Treason), and they conclude by saying, “Let’s not do that.” Afterward, the speaker thanks Mr. Rivera and indicates moving to “agenda item three.”

Elon Musk is suing the ADL for $22 billion, but who is the ADL? They claim to be a small nonprofit, but they have a history of controversies. In the past, they were involved in illegal activities, such as obtaining confidential police files without consent. They have also been accused of smearing private citizens and companies. The ADL has pressured social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter to ban certain accounts and has even threatened to smear entire countries. Their influence on digital platforms raises questions about what constitutes hate speech and who gets to decide. As our society becomes more interconnected, it is important to hold organizations like the ADL accountable and protect the principles of free speech.

Within these pillars, protect, advocate, educate, we are innovating. We are trying new ways to have an impact in the fight against anti Semitism. So let's talk about what that looks like. Within the first pillar, protect, not only has the team at the Center on Extremism expanded its ranks with data scientists and software engineers, but we use cutting edge AI tools to analyze the endless online chatter. And then when we identify salient trends or material threats, we route them to whomever may need it, could be journalists, policymakers, and very often law enforcement. Now I can't talk about all the times we do that. I can't divulge what's happened with every piece of intelligence shared, but just know there are real dangers that have been averted. Serious bad guys that have been put behind bars all over the world, And the information generated by Orin Siegel and the entire team on the Center on Extremism, it makes our communities safer.

Speaker 0: Number one, we measure and track. Number two, we monitor and disrupt. We have a whole apparatus. I have 40 analysts working full time, seven days a week, twenty four hours a day, monitoring extremists. We monitor them online, social media, messaging apps, video games, cryptocurrency, podcasts, short form video, Wikipedia, LLMs. We monitor these people and we share the intelligence with the FBI. You saw last month, you heard about the thing that happened at Wilshire Boulevard Temple. Our analysts investigated what happened. They said they were Koreatown for Palestine, this group of people. They weren't. We were able to ascertain they were from a group called the Turtle Island Liberation Front. Turtle Island is how, like, left wing activists refer to The United States. They don't call it America. They call it Turtle Island. Like the Iranians call it, Iranians call it the Zionist entity, or they only call by its name. The Turtle Island Liberation Front, we gave them a whole dossier. Who are what is Turtle Island Liberation Front? What are their ideas, their goals? Who are they? We identified the people who are in the synagogue. This was on Wednesday, December 10. On Monday, December 15, this is gonna ring a bell. Kashmattel announced they cracked a terror ring where they arrested four people who are playing New Year's Eve bombings, Turtle Island Liberation Front. At least one of the people I know for certain was in the building at Wilshire Boulevard Temple vandalizing it and disrupting the event. So we're monitoring left wing radicals like the DSA and the anti war crazies and the pro Palestine crazies. We're monitoring right wing extremists like white supremacists, armed militia groups. We're monitoring political Islamists and Christian nationalists, all of them. And then we train. We're the largest trainer of law enforcement in America. Extremism hate. We train 20,000 officers every year.

The foundation of democracy is vital, especially regarding freedom of speech. A recent policy titled "freedom of speech, not freedom of reach" emphasizes that while free speech is essential, platforms like Twitter can choose whom to amplify. It's important to limit the reach of extremist views without censoring speech entirely. Social media companies should follow the same business rules as other publishers. Providing a platform for hate groups and harmful individuals is unacceptable. The ADL has been actively monitoring and collaborating with major tech companies since 2017 to address these issues, ensuring that platforms are held accountable for the content they promote.

Israel and its supporters are actively working to censor the internet and promote the Israeli narrative while suppressing information about Palestine and the Israel lobby. This includes orchestrated projects sponsored by the Israeli government and pro-Israel groups. The Israeli military's new media desk employs soldiers to engage in online activities, while the National Union of Israeli Students pays students to combat hostile websites. Organizations like CAMERA and ACTIL also target public information online to shape the pro-Israel narrative. Major internet companies, including Google and Facebook, have been cooperating with Israel to delete content deemed incendiary. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) considers criticism of Israel as anti-Semitism and has developed the online hate index to identify and censor hate speech.

They express that recognition by Microsoft or the UN means little in the face of ongoing genocide, emphasizing that “the genocide, that's when you will have our respect” and that words from politicians or organizations do not solve the problem. Shadow banning is described as a process where big tech restricts content reach for users, aligning with policy or regularity to support the propaganda they serve. Content labeling before model training could be biased (e.g., from IDEV), leading to content being flagged and pro-Palestinian users banned. Meta later calls such issues “bugs,” but they are viewed as deliberate actions to suppress certain content. They claim Larry Ellison, owner of Oracle, is the biggest contributor to the “Friends for Idea Yeah. Charity,” with last contribution around 16,000,000. They assert that if a person who is friends with Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel owns 80% of TikTok, and Netanyahu promotes using TikTok and X to spread their narrative, it demonstrates the danger of social media in shaping global views and the propaganda machine. They accuse these entities of trying to control social media to brainwash younger generations, potentially restricting pro-Palestinian speech. Lobbying is described as highly structured, with knowledge of where to go, who to speak with, and organizations that move money to actions aligned with those goals. They urge each person to contribute their own skills toward free Palestine, noting strengths in tech, music, journalism, etc., and to create alternatives and support one another to change the dynamic. They argue that Zionists became powerful by mutual support, while others are weaker due to lack of unity, asserting that unity would strengthen their movement. Hejazi introduces himself as the founder of Upscroll. He is Palestinian, born in Jordan, currently living in Australia, with seventeen years of experience in Big Tech. The genocide’s ongoing impact changed his life, leading him to feel complicit via his work at big tech and to witness shadow banning of friends, family, and others posting about Gaza. He mentions that 60 relatives were killed in Gaza. He quit his successful professional career to build an alternative social media platform and decided to devote himself to creating Upscroll, an independent platform to counter the influence of Meta, X, and TikTok. Upscroll launched a couple of months ago and is similar to Instagram, X, and soon TikTok, with tens of thousands joining monthly. On launch, the platform saw rapid uptake: hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands as users sought an alternative to shadow bans, seeking to have their content reach others. The platform is presented as a response to the pain of posting without reach and the desire to become independent from dominant platforms.

The ADL Center for Technology and Society has graded tech platforms on their responsiveness to antisemitism and other forms of hate. Meta, for example, gutted its fact-checking department. Tech platforms have a responsibility to check and remove hateful speech. Congress and federal regulators, as well as states, have a role to play. Tech platforms are not accountable for misinformation due to Section 230 of the Federal Communications Act, which provides them immunity. Congress needs to amend Section 230 to hold tech platforms accountable. These platforms are private companies and can deplatform users via user agreements. The deplatforming and replatforming of people has been observed on platforms like X and Facebook/Meta. Universities are being held accountable for antisemitism on campus, and accountability is effective in changing behavior.

The ADL works with various companies in Silicon Valley, including Apple, Zoom, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and Twitter, to address the issue of hate speech on their platforms. They have expressed concern about Twitter allowing toxic content to persist, which has led to real-world violence in places like Pittsburgh, Poway, El Paso, and Washington, D.C. The ADL urges companies to use their innovation to combat hate speech. They have observed that anti-Semitic speech remains on the platform for longer periods, and toxic content is not being removed as quickly as before. The ADL emphasizes the importance of all users, including journalists and watchdog organizations, working together to make Twitter a safe space, as freedom of speech should not be used to slander or incite violence.

- The report centers on nearly a year of investigation into the Tony Blair Institute (TBI) and Larry Ellison, the world’s second-richest man, highlighting a close relationship between Ellison and the Israeli government, including Benjamin Netanyahu, and noting Ellison’s donations to Friends of the IDF as their biggest donor. Oracle, co-founded by Ellison, is described as on the verge of taking over the US version of TikTok, a platform influential with American youth. - The narrative emphasizes Ellison’s advocacy for the use of social media as a battlefield and identifies Oracle’s potential role in global information control through AI and data strategy. - Safra Catz, Oracle’s former CEO, is quoted as saying she wants to embed love and respect for Israel into American culture. The transcript also notes a controversial LinkedIn policy stance on hate speech, with a claim about “from the river to the sea.” - It is claimed that David Ellison, Larry Ellison’s son, owns Paramount, which recently took ownership of CBS News, run by Ari Wise, described as a “self-proclaimed Zionist fanatic.” The report asserts that anti-Zionism is equated with anti-Semitism in the narrative. - The event coverage includes a Dubai World Leaders Summit in February where Ellison, interviewed by Tony Blair, spoke about AI. Ellison allegedly proposed unifying national data into a single, easily consumable database for AI models. - The investigation indicates the UK government is starting to unify its data, with Blair’s Institute advising on this effort. Blair is depicted as a long-time advocate for ID cards and digital ID cards, proposing to bring together all personal data in one place. - The discussion contrasts the potential benefits of digital ID (faster, cheaper, more reliable interactions with the state) with the potential dangers of centralized personal data controlled by a single private company, noting Blair’s push and Oracle’s willingness to take on the role. It is noted that Ellison advocated for ID cards as far back as 2001. - The conversation expands to health data: a call to consolidate health care data, diagnostic data, electronic health records, and genomic data into a single unified data platform, arguing the NHS has a rich but fragmented population data set not easily accessible to AI models. These models are said to be trained mainly on data from the Internet, implying national health records are particularly valuable and not publicly available. - The report asserts deep TBI involvement in Keir Starmer’s government, creating a risk that valuable UK data could be co-opted by Ellison and Oracle for private gain. It claims Oracle has earned over £1.1 billion in UK government contracts and Ellison has already benefited from such arrangements. - It is alleged that Blair and Ellison have maintained a long relationship, with Blair appearing in Ellison’s yachts and on Lanai. Blair has recorded a video for Oracle; Ellison’s wealth and ventures are described through the rhetorical question about the difference between Larry Ellison and God, implying Ellison’s outsized influence and wealth. - The piece asserts the potential for surveillance-driven monetization through AI and data consolidation, with Ellison stating that citizens will be on their best behavior as data is constantly recorded, “the camera’s always on,” and that recordings are accessible only with a court order. - The report finishes by noting the influence of the Tony Blair Institute in UK policy, its international reach, and the concern that its promotion of big-tech and AI boosterism may overshadow the needs of local populations. It calls for further independent media scrutiny of big-tech lobbying and its impact on policy, inviting support for Double Down News on Patreon.

At the observatory, we observe and document haters, extremists, and entities, studying their patterns, organization, and activities. We've noticed a small but vocal group of about 20 to 22 entities, along with three political groups, who are organizing things behind the scenes. By entities, we mean individuals, particularly influential ones who operate mainly on social media.

The Anti Defamation League (ADL) is a Jewish human rights agency that monitors hate groups. Marvin Stern, the executive director of the Seattle office, explains that the organization's goal is to create a discrimination-free environment for all Americans. He also mentions that the ADL has influence over the FBI, stating that they give orders to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a fact that he challenges anyone to refute.

The speaker says the ADL opened a center in Silicon Valley in 2017, run by a future Facebook executive, and employs software engineers and data scientists. The ADL monitors data and collaborates with platforms like Google, YouTube, Meta, Twitter, Reddit, Steam, Amazon, Apple, and Zoom. The speaker states the ADL has worked with Twitter since its founding, engaging with both the old and new leadership, including Elon. Another speaker claims the ADL has daily meetings with social media companies, including Zoom, to censor speech. They assert the ADL is not a civil rights group, but an intelligence organization operating in the U.S. for another country.

Elon Musk is suing the ADL for $22 billion, but who is the ADL? They claim to be a small nonprofit in New York, but they have a history of controversies. In the past, they were involved in illegal activities, such as obtaining confidential police files without consent. They have also been accused of smearing private citizens and companies. The ADL has pressured social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter to ban certain accounts and has even threatened to smear entire countries. Their influence on digital platforms raises questions about what constitutes hate speech and who gets to decide. As our society becomes more interconnected, it is important to hold organizations like the ADL accountable and protect the principles of free speech.

We stopped playing defense and have moved to offense. You see this in our focus on the courts. In the past twelve months, ADL has filed more lawsuits than the prior one hundred and twelve years against extremist groups, elite universities, public companies, school districts, and state sponsors of terror. We've launched innovative products to intercept antisemitism before it takes root, whether in the boardroom or in chat rooms, large language models or academic associations, in Wikipedia entries or WhatsApp chats. This work matters, not just for the Jewish people, but for all of society.

The conversation centers on the core idea that democracy hinges on freedom of speech, but with in-depth debate about what that freedom should look like in the context of large platforms. Speaker 0 references the bedrock of democracy and notes a new policy posted yesterday titled “freedom of speech, not freedom of reach,” highlighting the tension between protecting speech and avoiding amplification of harmful or extremist content. Speaker 1, Jonathan, clarifies his stance: “I don't think it's about censorship. I believe in freedom of speech. The ADL is a civil rights organization, but I don't believe in freedom of reach.” He argues that Twitter, like other publishers, should have the ability to choose whom it privileges and who it doesn’t privilege, suggesting there should be a “lunatic fringe” kept on the fringe rather than algorithmically amplified. He lists examples such as “Russian propagandists, alt right crazy people, you know, violent anti Zionists,” implying that such content should not be algorithmically promoted. Speaker 2 asks whether this should be achieved through a free marketplace of ideas managed by private companies or through legal intervention in Washington, prompting Speaker 1 to respond that social media platforms should “simply obey the same rules of business that other publishers do.” Speaker 3 reframes the issue: it is not about limiting anyone's free speech but about giving people the largest platform in history to reach a third of the planet, noting that “Freedom of speech is not freedom of reach.” He asserts that there will always be racist, misogynist, anti-Semites, and child abusers, but argues that the goal is not to give bigots and pedophiles a free platform to amplify their views and target their victims. Speaker 4 shifts to the ADL’s operational stance, noting that they opened a center in Silicon Valley in 2017 and that the person running it will be “the next Facebook executive.” They describe having software engineers and data scientists monitoring online content and working with major platforms—Google, YouTube, Meta, Twitter, Reddit, Steam, Amazon, and others from Apple to Zoom. The speaker emphasizes ongoing collaboration with Twitter “since it was founded,” describing continuity with both “the old regime” and “the new regime,” and adds a provocative aside: “Like, I'm talking to Ivon. Bad guy.” The overall thread is a sustained effort to monitor, engage with, and influence platform policies through cross-platform collaboration while advocating for restraint in amplifying harmful content.

We stopped playing defense and have moved to offense. You see this in our focus on the courts. In the past twelve months, ADL has filed more lawsuits than in the prior one hundred and twelve years against extremist groups, elite universities, public companies, school districts, and state sponsors of terror. We've launched innovative products to intercept antisemitism before it takes root, whether in the boardroom or in chat rooms, large language models or academic associations, in Wikipedia entries or WhatsApp chats. This work matters, not just for the Jewish people, but for all of society.

Israel and its supporters are actively involved in censoring the internet by promoting the Israel narrative and blocking information about Palestine and the Israel lobby. They use both independent individuals and well-funded projects sponsored by the Israeli government and pro-Israel groups. These projects involve Israeli soldiers, students, American teens and seniors, and even infiltrating social media groups. Organizations like CAMERA and Unit 8200 play a role in covert internet activity, while major internet companies like Google and Facebook cooperate with Israel to delete content deemed incendiary. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) also targets hate speech and criticism of Israel. Efforts to counter the pro-Palestine movement include mobilizing a pro-Israel network and using Wikipedia to provide companion units of text alongside videos.

Key points: The ADL is described as “an intelligence arm of a foreign government, profiling Americans, shaping narratives, deciding who gets to speak, and who disappears.” Netanyahu's claim that “the Internet is Israel's new battleground” is treated as a warning that critics will be erased. The ADL is accused of contradicting its civil rights label, promoting diversity campaigns while opposing conservative agendas, and rewriting history to frame Christians and conservatives as extremists and the Bible as hate speech. Antisemitism is described as a “virus.” The narrative alleges a long-running push to normalize pedophilia, with ties to Les Wexner and Leo Frank; the FBI reportedly cut ties with the ADL. Cape Technologies allegedly owns major VPN brands, originated as Crossrider, and is led by Teddy Saghi (Unit 8200, Dovdivum). It promotes vp.net, a zero-trust VPN with Intel SGX, open source, $5/month.

We stopped playing defense and have moved to offense. You see this in our focus on the courts. In the past twelve months, ADL has filed more lawsuits than the prior one hundred and twelve years against extremist groups, elite universities, public companies, school districts, and state sponsors of terror. We've launched innovative products to intercept antisemitism before it takes root, whether in the boardroom or in chat rooms, large language models or academic associations, in Wikipedia entries or WhatsApp chats.
