As of Saturday, Apple suspended Parler (correct spelling) because it embraces threats of violence and illegality. If those are things you admire, you’ll need to look elsewhere.

All I know is it’s a social media site inspired by the increasingly blatant sensorial actions of Big Tech against users with opinions that contrast with the alt-left views of those companies’ positions, particularly
with regard to political matters. Others are Parler.com and Gab.com. Also there’s a search engine that does NOT artificially search results based on how closely sites/companies adhere to, or how sharply others diverge from similarly far left ideals, like Google.
com does. Shalom.
Hello all,

What is interesting is that before that happened
Parler was the number 1 download in the app store.

Actually, only the Parler app has been removed from the Apple App Store. being an independent company, Apple has no power to eliminate the Parler platform. One can still go to Parler.com and login there. As for signup accessibility, I’ve not tried that yet as I’ve been studying its About page and Policies statement. So I’ll hav to look into it. If it is an issue, then I’ll try pointing it out for resolution. It’s my impression the owner and company still value ALL their users enough to meet everyone’s needs they can.

The long term consequences of stifling free speech
would be a lot worse than any speech. The founders thought that free
speech was so important that they made it the 1st amendment to the Constitution.
Voltaire said, "I may disagree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death
your right to say it". i would suggest that you either read or reread
George Orwell's "1984".

All I know is it’s a
social media site inspired by the increasingly blatant sensorial
actions of Big Tech against users with opinions that contrast with
the alt-left views of those companies’ positions, particularly with
regard to political matters. Others are Parler.com and Gab.com. Also
there’s a search engine that does NOT artificially search results
based on how closely sites/companies adhere to, or how sharply
others diverge from similarly far left ideals, like Google. com
does. Shalom.
Hello all,
I’ve never even heard of this app before I was
asked to join it. What do you know about it? Any users?
Opinions?
Thanks.

I explored further and found that even though the
site comes up, it is not functional. I would imagine that your inquiries to
support are not reaching them.

the service would return, and that the developer would strive to make it
accessible to all interested users, including those with

A private monopoly. Amounts to the same
thing, unless you have the resources to develop your own app store, web servers,
etc.
Companies like Facebook and Twitter have developed
a monopoly in social media, buying up or snuffing out competition. There are two
smart phone platforms run by two companies, and they have colluded along with
Amazon Web Services to stifle free speech. it started with flagging
certain tweets and posts, then it went to deleting certain tweets and posts,
then it went to closing accounts of people whose speech they didn't like, and
now to shutting down entire platforms.
The government doesn't have to get involved,
someone else is already doing their dirty work for them,and they can alway say
that what is happening isn't a violation of the 1st amendment.
Technically, that is correct, but what is happening amounts to the same
thing.

it doesn't matter if it's a government or a couple of huge corporations. if they're able to stop you from getting your ideas out to people it is stopping free speech. Senator Holly's book was dropped by the publisher because he said the wrong things according to those in charge. when the only way to get ideas out in this modern world is via publishers Facebook YouTube Twitter and apparently Amazon those who control the servers. Then they are able to stifle free speech. It doesn't have to be a government to stifle free speech and free speech should be protected even from corporations.I'm platforms like YouTube Twitter One platforms like YouTube Twitter Facebook start deciding what can be and not be published on their pages they are a publisher and the rules for publishers are totally different from the rules for web platforms. They have to abide by those rules. As corporations now pretty much control all speech in this country. Randy Barnett
