Amazon has become the latest tech giant to ban the Parler social network from its app service.
The move follows similar announcements from Google and Apple about their removal of the Parler app from their app services.
In a statement on his app on Saturday, Parler’s CEO John Matze said “This was a coordinated attack by the tech giants to kill competition in the market place.”
“We were too successful too fast,” he added, noting that Parler may be unavailable for up to a week “as we rebuild from scratch.”
The developments comes as social media companies have made moves to remove Trump, his supporters and those opposing the Democratic party from their platforms.
Twitter shut down Trump’s account on Friday, citing his Tweet that he would skip Biden’s inauguration, while Facebook and Instagram have suspended Trump at least until Biden is sworn into office.
Parler has not restricted conservative voices like its competitors have, making it a target for big tech companies looking to censor Trump and other conservatives.

Oh, isn’t communism sweet? Traitors to our First Amendment rights. The Constitution means nothing to these communists. The beauty of the left, destroy our society. I wonder how all of the liberals, who voted for Biden, will like living in China / Venezuela? Sheep!
EVERYONE needs to contact amazon, and let them know WE ARE DONE WITH THEIR Commie tactics…
george orwell has entered the building.
They got their president in office so now they can shut down the competition. Wasn’t to long ago that Apple wouldn’t help the FBI open a terrorist’s phone.
MAYBE that’s why they wouldn’t help. INFO ON IT, might have been linked TO Farcibook.!
Amazon follows Apple and Google in banning Parler for allowing free speech
Correction: Amazon follows Apple and Google in banning free speech.
The Capitol riot, which appears to have been exacerbated by a few Antifa activists who were masquerading as Trump supporters, is the perfect excuse for the left to label Trump supporters as domestic terrorists and impose draconian restrictions on their freedom of speech to prevent public criticism of the left’s radical agenda. This censoring of conservative voices by big tech and most of the mainstream media with the endorsement of the Democrats is a disturbing development that is a genuine existential threat to our Constitutional Republic and must be condemned by all freedom-loving Americans irrespective of their political affiliation. Today’s Democrats should heed the words of President Harry S. Truman who warned of the danger of censorship when he stated:
“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”
WHEN the people fear the govt, there is tyranny! WELL THAT seems to be exactly what Twitter, farcebook etc, ALL WANT.
The best offense, is a great defense.
Your defense is to train the next generation on how corrupt and dangerous people can become. The greatest harm that happened to the youth today was they were gradually brainwashed by a corrupt government that is void of God. This allowed corrupt people (Big business: Amazon, Google, etc.) to push their agenda on the youth. Even the video/movie, Social Dilemma, suggests they (Social Media: Twitter, FB) were a major contributor to issues young people have today. Many youth are in crisis, especially identity, mode because the people that were made, by God, to educate and comfort the youth, the family, gave them freely over to those who have corrupted their minds, body, and soul. Maybe, homeschool is the answer? There is also a valid discussion in school choice – giving the power back to the family.
Additionally, and to use your resources even more greatly, cash is king. Take your money and apply it towards resources that support family and family values. Stop the compulsive behaviors of buying what is not needed, especially on Amazon. Stop supporting Big businesses and support local. Give back to your own communities.
THE LEFT controls damn near ALL FACETS Of education though. SO EXACTLY HOW will we ever ‘train’ the next generation, to know and realize how corrupt the left is’??
