Exactly, it's not a conspiracy if they're telling you they're doing it: https://twitter.com/Policy/status/1349059276975857664

It's a big club, and you ain't in it.

3. Corporations and the government are MERGING in the USA.

Biden just hired a tonne of ex-big tech staff to work on tech oversight policy, lol.

Gab is great and will survive long into the future because users of the website pay to use it. Rather than being sold to advertisers. Value for value exchange.

Look past the religious aspect and you'll see the content on there is much less toxic than on Twitter.

@judge2020 I'm aware Parler is a subpar platform (compared to Gab for example). But this de-platforming BS needs to stop. It's pathetic.

Or fear of the mob. We will be using DDoS-Guard going forward to show support for those with a spine.

What's your point?
Re:DDoS-Guard to forfeit internet space occupied by Parler on Thursday January 21, 2021 @11:46AM (#25860900)
I'm well aware of what speech is and is not legal under US law. Parler's TOS are inline with US law.

Not quite.

> DDoS-Guard CEO Evgeniy Marchenko maintains the company has done nothing wrong, and that DDoS-Guard does indeed have a presence in Belize.

So they acted without any investigation because "uh oh, here comes the mob".

You sound like the parrot.

"We need more than deplatforming"

"Changing these dangerous dynamics requires more than just the temporary silencing or permanent removal of bad actors from social media platforms."

Right from your link. Wake up.

The author sounds like he wants to just be a web Designer. In which case he can work inside his browser, using tools such as WebFlow.

Twitter allowed "Hang Mike Pence" to Trend for more than one day recently.

Parler did remove illegal content.

Meanwhile Facebook Messenger remains the #1 way Child porn is distributed online

Not true, and what is "hate speech"?
Re:How Silicon Valley destroyed Parler on Tuesday January 12, 2021 @06:41PM (#25755681)
AWS agreed to host Parler on a 1 year contract.

They have just breached that contract and bowed to the mob. For those reasons they're now being sued.

Sure, but they were in his home. If he had cameras streaming to a server recording everything they would stop doing that at least. (Or if they didn't, he would at least have evidence of the criminals faces)
