"X is a free public service funded largely by advertisers," reads a Monday night Twitter blog entry. "Through the CCDH's scare campaign and its ongoing pressure on brands to prevent the public's access to free expression, the CCDH is actively working to prevent public dialogue."

The move follows a July 19 Bloomberg article featuring the CCDH to claim that a "surge in harmful content" has caused advertisers to stay away from the free speech platform.

"During Musk's tenure, hate speech towards minority communities increased, according to the CCDH," reads the article.

To justify their claim, the CCDH used data from social media analysis provider Brandwatch, which – according to the company, "contained metrics used out of context to make unsubstantiated assertions about X (formerly Twitter)."
