BREAKING: Apple is currently threatening to ban Parler -- the free speech alternative to Twitter -- unless the service enacts draconian censorship policies demanded by left-wing Big Tech oligarchs, according to two sources familiar with Apple's threats.
I wish he were at this point.
Is Sean Davis a reliable source?
They can't, for now. But probably only a matter of time before ISP's start blocking access to "unapproved" sites, you know, like China does.
So some random Tweet says this and you advance it?
I’m sure some leftists (after all, Satan never sleeps) are trying to force Apple to do something like this but I’ve seen nothing indicating that Apple is “threatening” anyone.
“Trump is not a dictator.”

Gee, thanks for the bizarre totally unrelated newsflash! II also hear he’s not a fry cook, fork lift operator or a Druid!
::shrug::
Let them.
There’s a coup happening alright.
Is it possible to revoke a DNS entry?

The GOP stupidly green lighted this Big Tech censorship because they wanted to get rid of Trump. It already bit them in the behind in GA. And they couldn’t care less. They want us dead and gone THAT bad.
Are Apples’s stores fireproof ? Asking for a mostly peaceful friend.
Just build your own multinational App Store!
Someone needs to ban (Id settle for kicking the crap out of him) that little cyborg lookin creep Zuckerberg and his little friends.
All day Twitter conservatives have been creating or publicizing Parler accounts in expectation of becoming part of the wholesale ban supposedly justified by the “attempted coup” yesterday. Accounts with many thousands of followers have already been suspended. But nearly everyone who uses Parler reads it on an iPhone. Without the app, Parler will die . . . and that’s the point.
This would be a good reason to abandon Apple, except that Android will probably be next.
We need stand alone platforms.
“I use a real PC.”
Me too.
Many people use OpenDNS to block lookups of porn and illegit websites. How long until OpenDNS starts blocking sites FOR MY PROTECTION — BULL.
You don’t need to use OpenDNS but how many will even know this is going on? Likely to be behind ones back censoring.
I’m actually surprised Android (owned by Google) hasn’t done it already.
China doesn’t allow anti-chinese sentiment.
And we’re now China so there’s that.
Big Tech is your new government who tells the old government what to do.
