In a time of engineered confusion and weaponized language, truth itself is on trial. One of the boldest witnesses to this is Mike Benz, whose revelations unravel the sprawling architecture of global censorship—engineered not by rogue regimes, but through shadowy NGOs, captured institutions, and multinational influence networks hiding behind euphemisms like “safety” and “integrity.”
At the center of this web is the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH)—an organization that, as Benz meticulously lays out, is neither grassroots nor benign, but a British intelligence-linked operation designed to wage war on dissent.
“Information Integrity”: The Polished Lie
To understand the deception, we must start with the language. “Information Integrity” has become the euphemism of the decade—a marketing term for censorship, cloaked in benevolent-sounding intentions. But as Benz warns, it is merely the latest in a series of “integrity” operations like the Election Integrity Project, Transition Integrity Initiative, and the infamous Integrity Initiative—each masquerading as ethical reform while serving a singular authoritarian objective: narrative dominance.
In this schema, truth is defined by compliance, and “low integrity” information is anything that challenges establishment narratives—on elections, vaccines, climate, or war.
CCDH: British Blacklist Engine Disguised as a Watchdog
The Center for Countering Digital Hate, under the direction of Imran Ahmed, rose to notoriety by publishing the Disinformation Dozen—a blacklist of dissenting voices, including doctors, activists, and independent journalists (myself included)—who were then purged en masse from every major platform.
But this wasn’t civil society in action. It was a coordinated takedown, backed by high-level intelligence actors, and funded through U.S. and U.K. government-linked networks. CCDH's leadership has deep ties to the Atlantic Council, State Department, and Pentagon subcontractors. And as Benz exposes, their playbook is not just national, but transnational—operating through the UN and EU to institutionalize censorship laws that would destroy First Amendment protections worldwide.
Still Operating with Impunity—And Being Rewarded
Despite credible revelations and mounting evidence of censorship, disinformation, and potential illegal conduct, CCDH continues to operate with shocking impunity. Even worse, Imran Ahmed is being publicly rewarded.
As I expose in my article, “Imran Ahmed and the Elevate Prize: Why Are We Rewarding Censorship?”, Ahmed is now a finalist for the Elevate Prize, a prestigious award that claims to honor individuals who “elevate humanity.” This is not just tone-deaf—it is a grotesque inversion of moral clarity, honoring a man whose organization seeks to algorithmically silence medical doctors, ban authors from earning a living, and crush the very notion of pluralistic debate.
In my piece, “The CCDH’s War on Free Speech: A Government-Corporate Censorship Cartel”, I detail how the CCDH acts as a cutout for government censorship, circumventing constitutional protections by laundering government priorities through NGO “cutouts” and corporate partners.
This is coercive censorship by proxy, and it’s a direct assault on human rights.
Their Unraveling Has Begun
But the dam is showing cracks. CCDH is beginning to unravel under the weight of its own hubris. In “The Unraveling of CCDH: From Anti-Hate to Anti-Free Speech”, I document the internal contradictions, legal challenges, and loss of credibility now plaguing the organization.
Their once-untouchable image is corroding, as their ties to illegal surveillance and censorship are exposed—and the public begins to awaken.
The Illegal Orders: An NGO Acting Like a Spy Agency
Perhaps most damning of all is CCDH’s apparent engagement in illegal, intelligence-style operations. As I reveal in “Exposed: CCDH CEO Imran Ahmed Orders Digital Surveillance of Critics”, Ahmed has been caught ordering digital spying, mass reporting campaigns, and collusion with tech platforms to deplatform and financially strangle opponents—including myself and others who speak out about bodily autonomy, natural health, and informed consent.
These actions violate international law, domestic rights statutes, and ethical principles—yet there is no accountability.
The STAR Framework and Global Censorship Infrastructure
The CCDH’s crown jewel is the STAR Framework, their blueprint for global censorship regulation. As Benz lays bare, it calls for:
AI censorship by design
Government punishment of non-compliant platforms
Transparency mandates to expose platform vulnerabilities
Monetization bans for “low integrity” content
The goal is simple: criminalize dissent through international treaties, not just local legislation, using the UN, UNESCO, and WEF-aligned partners to standardize a global speech code enforced via AI and ad-tech manipulation.
This is not theory. It is policy-in-progress—and it's being tested in real time.
A Call to Conscious Action
We are witnessing the criminalization of truth. CCDH, under the guise of protecting humanity, is engineering silence—silencing the whistleblowers, the doctors, the mothers, the journalists, the creators who dare to deviate from the state-sanctioned script.
But the tide is turning.
We are not powerless. If we speak with clarity, courage, and unity—we can stop this.
Please sign and share this petition to demand that the Elevate Foundation investigate Imran Ahmed and revoke any awards until a full accounting is made of CCDH’s anti-democratic actions:
This moment is more than political. It is a cosmic reckoning—between those who believe in the power of centralized control and those who honor the sanctity of individual conscience.
Let us meet this moment with discernment and sacred resistance.
