Far-right organizers are working online to spread their messages of hate, recruit and organize members, raise money, and incite violence against innocent people.
We stop them.
DeplatformHate.org
We’re a group of researchers, activists, and journalists with deep expertise in disrupting and dismantling far-right organizations. We don’t work with law enforcement or Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) programs, as both of those groups have a track record of surveilling and victimizing the same marginalized communities we seek to protect.
We neutralize. We hold tech companies accountable for hosting and protecting hateful content.
We disrupt. We support internal tech workers organizing to hold their companies accountable.
We prevent. We make communities aware of hate groups acting in their midst and educate the public about the dangers of the far-right’s online presence.
Our work is the most effective counter to the spread of far-right propaganda. We make it harder for them to radicalize people and to organize them, and even harder for potentially dangerous individual groups to find one another online and attack vulnerable people, or inspire mass casualty events.
We’re tearing out the far-right movement’s digital roots. Racists, log off.
“I’m interested in disincentivizing this behavior. I’m interested in raising the cost of being a white nationalist, raising the cost of being a Nazi, raising the cost of making these threats anonymously online, and making it clear that these people are not as hard to find as they think they are.”
—Senior Researcher Molly Conger to the Washington Post
