New Civil Liberties Alliance seeks full discovery on government censorship tactics

The New Civil Liberties Alliance’s (NCLA) clients, including Professor Jay Bhattacharya, Professor Martin Kulldorff, and Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, as well as free speech advocate Jill Hines, allege that they were systematically blacklisted, shadow-banned, de-boosted, throttled, and even suspended across major social media platforms due to their viewpoints on Covid-19, public health, and government policies. NCLA claims this censorship campaign was orchestrated as part of a “whole-of-government” initiative that saw coordinated efforts across a dozen federal agencies, with direction from top White House officials.
