Parler has allegedly had hundreds of paid moderators for months. They also allegedly cleared their backlog over the weekend in a foolish belief they could be on the right side of AWS politics.

If Parler was so intent on staying on the right side of the law, maybe they should have cleared that backlog well before Jan 6th.

You said it yourself, Apple, Google, AWS are "the law" now.

Sounds like a market solution, does it not?

To be clear, what I mean is that they are demonstrably not "the law." This is a market problem and this was the market solution.
