The benefits of the Christchurch Call are being debated in the wake of allegations that it's silencing member organisations. 

Jacinda Ardern established the global alliance in 2019 to combat online extremism in the wake of the Christchurch mosque attacks.

Griffin says big-tech companies have little incentive to act and would rather spend the money on advertising.
