    It shouldn't be too hard for Parler to move to a different cloud provider. There are plenty of them around. Not many have capacity on the level that AWS has, but Parler is small enough that they have plenty of options.

    That said, I also think this isn't good.

      They should probably move to IBM or MSFT just to not have to shit down for a week, but then build their own infrastructure anyway.

              I've been preaching for quite sometime about a couple of different facets of this story:

              1. The internet is the new public square, especially the Big Tech companies such as Twitter, Facebook, etc. There has to be some level of regulation (at least for Americans) that ensures the same level of free speech as a public square.

              2. Big, can be too big. It stifles competition and innovation. It's time for some Teddy Roosevelt trust-busting.

              The Left in this country is currently using the Capitol Riot as their Reichstag Fire and Big Tech is helping them silence any and all opposition...

                    The far left could gain more actual power, but isn’t there also a chance that moderate ideas could have more space once the “great orange menace” has been removed?

                    If you believe TDS is a thing, maybe the some of the “D” will disappear with the “T” in power.

                      That was my thought too (unless they didn’t build their system to be cloud agnostic by using some AWS-only services). That being said, I imagine if they went to Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Google, etc...they’d get kicked off of each.

                                    This is just unreal, isn’t it. I feel like I’ve woken up to an alternate reality. (Could be the migraine medicine I had to take at 4am. Seriously.)

                                      It’s so interesting that countries like China censor via government and in the US it’s our corporations.

                                      So why? I have my impressions but I’m interested in what others think.

                                        Well, sometimes we do it through precedents in civil law. I still think there’s some liability concern behind the Parler thing.
