Big Tech continued its anti-free speech activities in October, and MRC Free Speech America tracked this censorship on its unique CensorTrack.org database. Hamas terrorists launched a horrific attack on Israel this month, and Meta and YouTube targeted accounts exposing Hamas’s atrocities. Continuing to interfere in the upcoming 2024 election, Big Tech also targeted President Joe Biden’s opponents with censorship — again. In another instance, Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) added a demonetization feature to its Community Notes fact-check program. And Instagram fact-checked a post exposing the U.S. southern border crisis. …

Meta’s Facebook and Instagram target pro-Israel posts exposing Hamas’s atrocities. Facebook fact-checked presidential candidate Larry Elder (who has since dropped from the race) for posting the report that Hamas killed 40 babies, including through beheading. Facebook called the information “partly false,” claiming there was “no evidence” of the babies being beheaded. The Israeli government has since confirmed that Hamas beheaded at least one baby, posting videos of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officer who found the beheaded baby’s corpse.

Actor Nate Buzolic also said on Fox News that Instagram shut down his account no fewer than three different times for posting about Hamas atrocities in Israel and Gaza. “I actually just showed the real-time footage that has been shared around social media,” Buzolic said. “And I think what this really presents is a clear and coordinated effort of groups to shut down content and accounts like myself who have been exposing the atrocities of what Hamas has done.”
