Common carrier loses that status then.
Blindly carrying data is what defines common carrier.
Yeah, that's a lot closer,
But, in order for Parler to build out something similar on their own they would have to invest of millions of dollars over a couple of years to build something equivalent to what they have now (i.e. multiple redundant data centers throughout the world, CDNs placed in all major cities, etc).
And in the meanwhile, the lefties can build equivalent sites within weeks at for a couple of thousand dollars a month.
Hope their yaml files are clean and provider agnostic. Shouldn't take long for the switch.
Same access to the speeds they will need.
You mean like what Trump tried to do with the NDAA but it was shot down by a Democrat House and a Republican Senate ?
What chance do we have now that the Dems run the House, Senate, and the Presidency ?
“... build your own press.”
And your own phone, if the phone company decides to cancel you for making calls in support of something they don’t like.
And your own bank if the banks won’t let you write checks for something they don’t like.
And your own email system if the company doesn’t like what you write.
You believe “they” won’t cancel you from any of the above if “they” can get away with it?
And my understanding is that Amazon is not the press any more than they are the manufacturer for most if not all of what you may purchase through them. They are mostly a middleman, an interface with manufacturers and involved in delivery services.
No more purchases from Amazon.
Cloudflare was reluctant to boot the KKK site off and didn’t do so for months. When they did so in 2017 after Charlottesville, they still had days to make the change.
It is damning that Big Tech firms are killing services with less notice than actual white supremacists ...
That they’re hosting ISIS and Antifa terrorists while shutting down conservative and merely free speech sites is proof liberals consider conservatives WORSE than actual terrorists.
Invite from facebook alternative site

Facebook and Twitter are blocking President Trump. So we are growing fast. USA.Life is the #1 Conservative Facebook alternative. With many people joining us we need to add more servers
And this coordinated purge of conservative sites proves that Big Tech IS illegally colluding to kill the competition
Hasn’t CWII already started?
WE ARE NEXT - how do we keep the communication going?
What does that even mean ?
Are you assuming they are using Docker ?
Anything like Parler is way, way, way more complicated than changing a few "yaml" files.
And you are forgetting the CDNs and DNS that points to them as well.
I hate to admit it, but AWS is by far the best all in one shop to build a resilient, global applications at a price which is significantly cheaper that other offerings.
Sure Parler can eventually find an alternative, but the costs and time involved to do so could do grave financial harm to them.
What AWS is being allowed to do by the Federal Government is nothing short of full on Soviet style authoritarianism, and is a good indicator that much, much darker times are in our immediate future.
You should all contact Amazon customer service through Chat and ask them if it is true Amazon is going to turn off the servers for Parler and then ask if there is a link to turn off your Amazon account.
They need to hear from us. If you sit quiet, bad stuff will happen. It might still happen but you have to make an effort.
This is a very serious time we are living in now.
Purge Alert!
The only “news” you need is from Jeff’s Washington Post.
The Left is doing its damnedest to start it.
I I believe that this reeks of anti-trust issues and Rico!
Actually I think that there is a lot of antitrust issues and RICO when you have these three or four mega companies agreeing to do something like this together. This is definitely set up to break them apart. They conspired together
With the Democrats controling all of the government, that could change.
Are you assuming they are using Docker ?
I'm assuming they're running a proper Kubernetes cluster.
Anything like Parler is way, way, way more complicated than changing a few "yaml" files.
Not true at all. I run enterprise systems and can deploy to AWS, Google, or DigitalOcean with a few changes to a couple of yaml files
And you are forgetting the CDNs and DNS that points to them as well.
Not a problem. Move over to CloudFlare for the CDN (better than AWS) and use the DNS on Digital Ocean. Easy.
I hate to admit it, but AWS is by far the best all in one shop to build a resilient, global applications at a price which is significantly cheaper that other offerings.
AWS is easily the most expensive. GCP is cheaper, and Digital Ocean is MUCH cheaper - while still accessing the same high-speed data planes.
Sure Parler can eventually find an alternative, but the costs and time involved to do so could do grave financial harm to them.
If they're truly provider agnostic then they could actually end up saving a ton of money by moving off of AWS.

Agreed, my FRiend
