OUR WORK CONTINUES.
Our Founder and CEO Imran Ahmed, faces the prospect of unlawful detention for his work holding Big Tech accountable for the damage their platforms do to our kids, community, and democracy.
AN IMPORTANT UPDATE ON IMRAN'S CASE
AN IMPORTANT UPDATE ON IMRAN'S CASE
On September 8, a federal judge dismissed Imran’s lawsuit seeking to prevent the Trump administration from detaining and deporting him, concluding that a recent appellate ruling prevented her from hearing his claims on jurisdictional grounds.
For now, the existing order remains in effect until Tuesday, September 15.
His counsel has formally asked the court to extend that protection and appealed to the Second Circuit.
THIS IS BIGGER THAN ONE CASE
Imran’s case raises a question with consequences far beyond CCDH: Can people freely investigate powerful companies, publish what they find, and advocate for change? That scrutiny matters when a handful of companies have enormous influence over what billions of people see, hear, and experience every day. At CCDH, it is fundamental to what we do.
Grok and sexualized images
Earlier this year, CCDH research estimated that Grok generated three million sexualized images in just 11 days, including an estimated 23,000 depicting children.
Our researchers documented the scale of the problem and put evidence behind growing concerns about safeguards around generative AI.
How mainstream AI chatbots assist users planning violent attacks
8 in 10 AI chatbots were regularly willing to assist users in planning violent attacks including school shootings, religious bombings, and high-profile assassinations.
The guardrails exist. Most companies are choosing not to use them, putting public safety and national security at risk.
The evidence is out there.
Help us keep finding it.
Big Tech has enormous power and resources. Holding them accountable takes people willing to dig deeper, ask hard questions, and bring the evidence into the open. That’s what we do. And we’re not stopping. If you believe the public deserves to know what’s happening behind the screen, help us keep looking. Big Tech won’t hold itself accountable but together, we can.
