They make you give a cell phone number to register....

According to the Parler youtube channel, mobile users need to submit far more than just phone number

Here's their instructional video for Android Parler App.

Parler 101 - User verification (mobile app)

published September 18, 20196

Phone number

Full frontal photo of valid drivers license

Full photo of back of licence

Take a video selfie of you blinking to verify you are real.

Take still selfie

Unless this is a very sophisticated spoof channel, this is far more info submitted than FR parler users have posted.

If this is not the case for verification submission, why has parler not deleted this video?

Comments please from verified mobile app FReepers....?

In addition the Android app page, the listing of required permissions, you have to search for it, has some unusual ones. Such as leaving the app running even when phone is off. There is tiny print at the bottom advising users that permissions can be turned off. But why is the ON the default condition?

No. They only require ID to get verified . Verified accounts get a gold P in their profile like twitter’s blue tick

Most people won’t need to do this unless you’re famous and are concerned about potential imposters
