"The Impact of Nandini Jammi and Elon Musk on Right-Wing Content and Conspiracy Theories"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Washington Post
Nandini Jammi, co-founder of Check My Ads, a nonprofit advertising watchdog organization, is leading efforts to defund far-right influencers and creators by alerting advertisers to their platforms and content. Jammi successfully played a role in de-platforming Alex Jones in 2018 and has since focused on holding advertisers accountable for their support of extremist and hateful content. By filing complaints, raising awareness, and working with industry accountability boards, Jammi has persuaded companies like SimpliSafe, SoundCloud, and Mailchimp to stop advertising on platforms associated with far-right influencers. Her work aims to disrupt the revenue streams that fuel the spread of disinformation and hate speech in the influencer ecosystem.
