First I heard that parler.com has registered at Epik. (confirmed)

whois parler.com
Domain:parler.com
Registrar:Epik Inc.
Updated On:2021-01-11

Next I checked to see if there was an "A" record yet for parler.

Query a Domain Name Server
https://manytools.org/network/query-dns-records-online/go/
Domain to lookup (IP for reverse DNS): parler.com
DNS nameserver you want to query (optional): ns3.epik.com (Epik DNS)
Type of record: A

"A" DNS records for parler.com, [DNS server 52.55.168.70]:
parler.com. 300 IN A 0.0.0.0

Next I checked to see the propgation of it in other DNS locations.

whatsmydns.net DNS Propagation Checker
"A" DNS records for parler.com
OpenDNS - parler.com. 245 IN A 0.0.0.0
Sprint - parler.com. 300 IN A 0.0.0.0
.
. (most have the place holder)
. (this one however resolved to an IP address)
CNNIC - parler.com. 228 IN A 185.45.7.189

Per Wikipedia:
CNNIC is the administrative agency responsible for Internet affairs under the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People's Republic of China.

So Whois IP 185.45.7.189 and why does their DNS point parler.com to it?

What’s the question?

Is it not working for you?
Is it working too well for you?
Can you not figure out the interface?
Are your muffins burning and you should pull them out of the oven?
Has your dog got out and is eating up random neighbor kids?

He was on Tucker last night. He can’t get hosting. People say yes and then back out at the last minute. He says they’ll be back and “hopes” it will be soon. Here’s the clip; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcfyA1yIloQ

Doesn’t look very good for parler. If it takes weeks to get it back up and running, more than half the members will be gone for good. They will have been on gab, mewe or clouthub for so long, they’ll just stay there.

They’ll have new ICANN records when they’re back up. This is old data

Is GAB an alternative? Is FR vulnerable to DDOS?

Are you asking in a round about way if a site can get "disappeared" from DNS ?

We will know the answer in a couple of days, that's how long records tend to work their way through the system, but it is possible, just ask anyone in China.

So the Chinese DNS parked control of Parler.com with their buddies at Twitter.

Kinda makes sense on their part. They probably don’t want want that domain name suddenly popping up if Parler gets their service unexpectedly restored.

Nameservers that are improperly configured will slow DNS in general. When those “big tech” company retards changed DNS configs, they messed up traffic for many other services that had nothing to do with them. There were brief outages all over the place a couple of days ago.
