The idiot author doesn’t know what he’s saying.

They only used AWS from the front end web servers.

Set up new front ends and off you go.

Surely there’s a computer company somewhere that is not controlled by the Far Left. What about the one that hosts this site?

Parler should hire some of the really good peer to peer sharing network software programmers, and let users host parler on a shared P2P software platform the same way that torrents worked. No one person holds any specific contiguous segments of data, and many people redundantly hold many copies.

ZDNet where people write about technology but don’t do technology. It is not rocket science to stand up your own infrastructure. It takes money. It takes people. Unless vendors won’t sell the hardware or install the internet pipe, it is completely doable.

They should go after billions from lost market cap plus treble damages from anti-trust. They need a large payout to stop this kind of thing.

That reads like it’s written by a big data center snob.

Epic has agreed to host Parler.
They are still working through the initial requirements, but that’s step 1.

They have a model.
Duplicating it might take some time, but I believe they will be back sooner than later.

Another example of the Left celebrating prematurely. Twitter is going to lose at least half of its business. Amazon pulling this stunt is going to cause millions more who never even heard of Parler to leave Twitter. If people have any sense at all they will dump their investments in “woke” companies.

Now that Amazon has shut down Parler’s servers and taking Parler offline, Amazon has violated Free Speech.
I would avoid buying from them, you can find the same products elsewhere.
I’ve rarely bought anything from Amazon because of the illegal way they have run small competitors out of business for years - Jeff Bezos is a scumbag.

Interesting how a few big tech companies can gang up and smash a competitor... a billion dollar company.

If I did that in my business I'd be sued into poverty and possibly prosecuted.

We once had anti-trust laws - but that was before we went neo-fascist.

The people who run this country(or at least think they do) are in for a major surprise. I think they are afraid of us. I hope they have good reason to be afraid of us. We have spent so much of our political capitol supporting wealthy and corporate supposedly conservative interests who do not reciprocate to our specific concerns. They have just been using us! Just like the left wing oligarchs use socialists and radical elements. We are a middle class movement and we should understand that and work for our own interests.

ZDNet is a competitor of my tech company...but this analysis is beyond stupid. It points up the utter lack of IT acumen of these so-called “tech writers.” Building your own infrastructure is not difficult, although it is costly. But money is fungible. And there are a variety of open source tools built for privacy that are available for a nominal cost, (ie, Inrupt, Solid, BitMitigate, 2nd Amendment Processing, ProtonVPN,etc.). Blockchain-based peer-to-peer computing nodes are available now making spare disk and bandwidth available for a nominal license fee. The Handshake protocol lets you build TLDs as a private tunnel atop ICAAN’s root file. These are the tools that will lead to a decentralized Internet in 2-3 years. Google and Apple don’t know it yet, but they are on the downward curve

Do what FR does, what Parler can do, buy the servers.
