In the US, the government was accused of sponsoring online censorship tools

WASHINGTON, February 6 The House Judiciary Committee published a report accusing the US government of funding the development of artificial intelligence-based Internet censorship tools.
Congressmen claim that the developers of such solutions received a total of $39 million from the government's National Science Foundation under a grant program «ensuring trust and authentication in communications systems.»

«»As a distributor of multimillion-dollar grants, the National Science Foundation is a key player in the «censorship industrial complex.» In recent years, behind the screen of countering so-called disinformation, the National The Science Foundation is funding AI tools and other new technologies that can be used to censor online speech and use it for propaganda purposes,” the interim report said.
The foundation, according to a parliamentary investigation, sponsored 12 private developers, including $5.75 million each paid to Meedan with its Co-Insights product, and to the University of Wisconsin-Madison with its CourseCorrect program. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Michigan each received $750,000 to develop WiseDex and Search Lit, respectively, the document says.
«»National Science Foundation-funded projects are helping to create a censorship regime that could make it very difficult for millions of Americans to exercise fundamental First Amendment rights. This could potentially happen instantly and be largely unnoticeable to victims,” wrote the congressmen.
