The horrifying thing is how Apple, Google, Amazon, and Facebook all colluded together as a cartel (just waiting for Netflix to join in on the action somehow). It's a slap in the face to regulators, and if that doesn't invite more anti-trust action, I'm not sure what would. For those of you excusing these actions because you disagree with those who were silenced, just remember that the same tools can be used on you in the future.
Good and bad is a different question than can or cannot.
Well that's not really a question as of now, because they can and have done it.
Good move. It’s important to not give extremist Trump supporters a platform to unite and plan more attacks on American democracy.
Yeah because antifa didn’t use social media platforms to attack democracy and create anarchy
The events at the Capitol, if you paid attention to what happened over the summer, were only predictable. You cannot let riots in several cities go crazy, private businesses being trashed and looted, even burned, and expect the other side to be quiet about it.
Absolute bullshit. One of these days it is just going to be illegal to be a conservative. Just wait. The worst of you will probably love it.
Extreme toxicity is the mantra. If you don’t believe in the mono party then you are an enemy. 1984
Keep thinking it's about being republican and not about being a platform that lead to a riot at the Capitol and Inciting violence
So if they are using emails to chat, should email service be banned as well?
So should mortgages, passports, drivers licenses, food stamps, healthcare, let’s call for healing while we do this too!
@dc1234567 emails are different. Parler is a public forum and can be used to attract people that align with the extremist mindset of certain Trump followers and when several such people get together then the result is a mob similar to the one from last week. I wonder if people opposing Parler ban are deliberately acting naive. Its really obvious to me why Parler needed to be banned.
Drumpf is done! We need to stop hate speech! Hate speech is violence!
Anyone is free to Sue FAAG on free speech. See how it goes.
People are WAY underestimating how is this is for them to get back up and running. Just move the entire app to a different AWS account like a reseller or some shell company and get a new CDN
When you're evil enough that even Bezos doesn't want your money...
Good. Amazon is a business, and should have a choice about who they decide to do busines with, according to Republicans.
It’s ironic that you use an app called Blind
Should ISPs have the ability to decide what websites your are allowed to visit?
