TruPlay Games, a Christian digital media company that creates educational Bible-based video games and entertainment, has accused American technology company Google and popular social media platform TikTok of systematically censoring Christian content and has asked Congress to intervene.
In a five-page letter to House Judiciary Chair Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on Wednesday, officials at the American Center for Law & Justice, which is representing TruPlay Games, says that since 2023, Google has rejected dozens of TruPlay’s advertisements under a policy labeled “Religious belief in personalized advertising.”
“In practice, however, Google applies its ‘Religious belief in personalized advertising’ policy to reject advertisements because they contain religious content, regardless of how the audience is targeted,” ACLJ Executive Director Jordan Sekulow writes, along with Nathan J.

The ACLJ officials said Google rejected advertising such as: “Turn Game Time Into God Time,” “Christian Games for Kids,” and “Safe Bible Games for Kids.”
