A comment on Parler CEO says he was fired by board. Parent comment
People on HN are so much into 'technical' issues.
The notion 'The CEO must be fired' because he allows messages to be saved but the mission is privacy - is far too getting hung up on technicalities.
What the Parler CEO essentially wanted was a free and open platform, free from general intrusion.
That's it.
It's not a Singal, or Telegram - it's not about Snowden level security.
CEO's say all sorts of things all the time that are arguably inconsistent with the details of their reality, that's not a new phenom.
He's essentially saying he wants a WhatsApp/Twitter/Signal type platform, where people aren't blocked for arbitrary reasons.
He's not making statements about protection against state level actors.
And Parler does moderate anyhow.
