They don’t specify what they mean by “deplatformed.” Were they on a cloud provider who pulled the plug on them? Which cloud platform? AWS? Azure? Google? That’s a seriously egregious violation of most cloud contracts, so I doubt that’s it.

In all likelihood they were hosted somewhere, and that host either redirected their DNS or shut down their ingress points. Still egregious, but if you’re not in control of your platform at the infrastructure level, you’re at the whim of digital tyrants.

Mark Levin’s FB page as well, I’m hearing.

as of yesterday he is no longer on FB... they gave him a list of things he needs to do to be back in good standing... he said NO... he will no longer go to FB to read any comments... if anyone wants to send him comments, they can do so on Twitter or Instagram...

Unfortunately there are those who have gone full libertardian.

Being a shill more megacorps in the 80's and before was so much more fun when they were quasi-conservative. Now that they are libtard the libertardians will hopefully wake up and smell the half-caf-soy-latte.

Corporate America is inherently hostile to the 1st Amendment, we have to rein them in by force.

Thank you, Think-Tank Republicans, for not recognizing this a decade ago when it might have done some good.

I’m not savvy enuf to know what “deplatformsd” even MEANS.
I understand “defrocked”. Is it the same?
Is it the same as “dethatched”?

I guess I could Groogle it.

How does Groogle work?

What’s the frequency, Kenneth?

Or they'll be lined-up against a wall and shot.
Either way it works for me.

Just imagine if we had a Justice Department with Strong Anti-Trust laws in their Quiver, the US Marshall’s office would have Siezed these domains and isp’s already and the operators would be Prosecuted Criminally and Civilly.

A 525 error is most likely a configuration error - esp with regards to SSL configuration.

However, that does not rule out shenanigans.

That does put a fine point on “live fine without them”.

This is the kind of news breitbart and FNC would promote to have clicks.

I hate when Freepers post that nonsense. It is a cheese-eating, surrender monkey attitude.

It looks like a server related error so far.

Does anyone here use https://d.tube ?

It is a distributed application (though many of the videos are links to other sources rather than d.tube natively hosted) based on the steem blockchain.
