>Regardless, this is besides the point: all a competitor has to do is post some garbage and point to it, and boom, you're dead. That's not ok.

In this case, they pointed to it weeks prior and it wasn't removed.

Amazon claims this, and Parler disputes that this was brought to their attention. (it's not easy to ramp up moderation overnight -- and FB/Twitter have consistently had far worse, even with far larger moderation teams.)

Removing the specific examples included in the complaint can't be that hard though. One person should be able to do it in a day or two

I agree, which makes Parler's dispute over Amazon's claimed timeline far more plausible to me.

How many years did Twitter exist before hiring big teams of moderators?
