BREAKING: Amazon is kicking Parler off AWS, its web hosting service, which will take them offline until it finds a new host

[Foreigner Looking In.]

Parler was a global forum with members from all over the world, including me. I had built up friends and contacts with people from other countries and we were discussing non-American themes. It was not a U.S political forum. It was international. Much like Twitter. Now it's all gone, we've been censored by the Stalinists, apparently because they allowed images of the protests on Wednesday. Real reason was that they kicked Trump off Twitter and had to block his potential bolthole. But the whole world has to suffer because of Democrat control freakery.

I see several issues...

Amazon is a private company so it can do what it likes, for one.

Are they and these other tech giants preventing people from setting up new host sites? Everything is so intertwined these days.

Should anyone be forced to host entities calling for/promoting insurgency and political overthrow in the name of free speech? Parler, apparently removed Lin Wood's posts calling for Pence to be executed. Good? Bad? When stuff like that gains enough of a following to push people to act, like we saw this past week, and we have a President openly supporting it...what then?

Funny how they are only doing it to Trump supporters.

Not exactly true - overall the social media giants have suspended/banned the accounts of a number of groups over the past few years. Right now, at this moment, it is certain Trump extremists who have openly called for and supported an attempted violent insurgency, and planned it on social media platforms. Should they have been left alone so they can have a re-do with more arms and competency? How is it any different than any other terrorist group?

The left have been openly advocating a violent insurgency all year.

For 4 years.

Wow. This is heavy. This is fascism. Thanks libs.

Not fascism. Common sense.

It's FASCISM--------------

You need to look up some definitions before you try to use those big words.

1. Parler said they will setup their own site, so we'll see if they can keep it running
2. Who is calling for an insurgency? The DC chant was "stop the steal", it was a protest about voter fraud.
3. If it was an insurgency they would have had guns instead of flags.
4. I agree that calls to violence need to be filtered out.
5. Trump supported what? He called for "a peaceful transition", but wants voter fraud reduced in future elections.

should people be allowed to keep lying about what parler is doing so you feel better about doing it?

FB and Twitter tell you they can't stop people doing that on their platform, but parler must?

so damn tired of the hypocrisy.

Only a full fledged war will end it. The sorry bastards won't stop shitting on people.

Ironically, up until this moment, you have controlled most of the political process. You have most of the governors, state legislatures, you had the Executive and the Senate, but that's not good enough. You don't like the results of THIS election, so you no longer want to play by the rules which have been in place for some 250 years.

They told us to "build our own facebook/twitter" if we didn't' like their rules. So we did, now they changed the goalposts and said "build your own everything."

We didn't tell you to use it to plan an insurgency.

Turn on zee ovenz! They will turn on you also.

 

[Crepitus]

Wow. This is heavy. This is fascism. Thanks libs.

How is shutting Parler down not fascism.
Its blatant censorship, while still allowing China, Iran, and the other crazies around the world their anti-American speech?!
Parler is now a national treasure that will be supported by many of the 71m...

You used it to plot insurrection. That's a crime. They should be shut down with prejudice and all their user data should be confiscated.

What are you waiting for? Go do it!

Go do what?

There's a helicopter waiting for you.

But it is out of gas because I drained the tanks..

 

[DrLove]

There is no purge.

What's going on is that ALL free people and organization are CONDEMNING the atrocious events of Wednesday, January 6th, 2021 at our nation's Capital.

All those weeping and waiting and caterwauling over this are on the WRONG side of history.

Not to mention you WILL be rooted out of decent society.

COME GET ME YOU FUCKING COMMIE

RIOTERS SCREAM "DEATH TO AMERICA" IN KENOSHA... - YouTube

Insurgents chant "HANG MIKE PENCE!!" - Will you condemn that also here and now?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Sedition? Give me a break. It was a mob gone a bit wild and the police let them in. How does one overthrow the US government without weapons?

Sedition that is thwarted in a couple hours?

So disingenuous of the left to call that sedition. The greatest superpower ever known to the planet was in danger of being overthrown by this fucking guy?????

This is not a credible threat and everyone knows it...its an excuse to censor.

Lefties, I am telling you, when the powers that be determine you are not left enough...YOU WILL BE CANCELLED.

You bastards deserve what's coming.

breakfast burritos sound swell..

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Yep, the purge is real.

Next they'll prevent us from using the fiber-optic cables.

The thread premise is a lie – there is no ‘purge.’

‘“AWS provides technology and services to customers across the political spectrum, and we continue to respect Parler’s right to determine for itself what content it will allow on its site,” the Amazon notice to Parler said in part. “However, we cannot provide services to a customer that is unable to effectively identify and remove content that encourages or incites violence against others. Because Parler cannot comply with our terms of service and poses a very real risk to public safety, we plan to suspend Parler’s account effective Sunday, January 10th, at 11:59 PM PST.”’

Amazon to Suspend Hosting Services for Parler, Saying App ‘Poses a Very Real Risk to Public Safety’

Far-right social network Parler is set to go dark after Amazon's AWS said it's pulling the plug on the service's internet hosting account.

The service was discontinued because Parler violated the terms of service, no goalposts were moved.

Because the government isn’t doing it. Amazon doesn’t want to sell their product to Parler. I can hardly blame them.

Funny thing, I just tried to log onto gab and a screen came up " checking your browser, this is automatic, you will be redirected to your website in 5 seconds" then the something happen screen came up. Not good.

Yes.

The proper solution is to bring him before a military tribunal and let justice be done the American way.

He should have thought this out when he put the site together. He has the Mercer's they can put their own platform and server's together instead of sucking off other's.

They used it to protest a corrupt government stealing an election......

No. That's a fantasy promoted by the people who have brainwashed you.

Harmless as a fly and they are all about law and order kinda thingy, no?

Billions of taxpayer dollars are funding these platforms. They're in violation of the first amendment. You know its bad when the leftist ACLU is calling out these tech companies for violations of the 1a.

Seriously, there's more "sedition" in the UK over soccer games. Ever seen a soccer riot?
