Amazon's suspension of Parler's account means that unless it can find another host, once the ban takes effect on Sunday Parler will go offline.
Amazon on Saturday kicked Parler off its Web hosting services. Parler, a social network favored by conservative politicians and extremists, was used to help plan and coordinate the January 6 attempted coup on Washington D.C. It has recently been overrun with messages encouraging “Patriots” to march on Washington D.C. with weapons on January 19.
Amazon's suspension of Parler's account means that once the ban takes effect on Sunday Parler will be offline until it finds someone else to host it.
Amazon declined to comment on the suspension. Parler has not yet responded to a request for comment.

Sunday (tomorrow) at midnight Amazon will be shutting off all of our servers in an attempt to completely remove free speech off the internet. There is the possibility Parler will be unavailable on the internet for up to a week as we rebuild from scratch. We prepared for events like this by never relying on amazons proprietary infrastructure and building bare metal products.
We will try our best to move to a new provider right now as we have many competing for our business, however Amazon, Google and Apple purposefully did this as a coordinated effort knowing our options would be limited and knowing this would inflict the most damage right as President Trump was banned from the tech companies.
This was a coordinated attack by the tech giants to kill competition in the market place. We were too successful too fast. You can expect the war on competition and free speech to continue, but don’t count us out.

More Info: Parler CEO Says Service Dropped By “Every Vendor” And Could End His Business
"....Parler CEO John Matze said today that his company has been dropped by virtually all of its business alliances after Amazon, Apple and Google ended their agreements with the social media service.
“Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day,” Matze said today on Fox News.
Matze conceded that the bans could put the company out of business while raising free speech issues, calling it “an assault on everybody.”
“They all work together to make sure at the same time we would lose access to not only our apps, but they’re actually shutting all of our servers off tonight, off the internet,” Matze said. “They made an attempt to not only kill the app, but to actually destroy the entire company. And it’s not just these three companies. Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day.”...."
This is a partial transcript of a Fox News show with Maria Bartiromo.

Actually I don’t know how many of you have been around as long as I have. But there was days where we had 200 and 300,000 post comments if you will on threads around here. I hope a lot of our old timer start to migrate this way and come home I know I’ve been on the site more now than I have probably been in months if not years. We already have the infrastructure I don’t see why we just don’t use it
Lawsuits don’t do you any good when the judiciary is compromised.
Just went to gab...its down
Could be what’s happened to many consrvative sites..even parler had this problem,, they are relatively new and now they are getting so swamped with people signing up dad from time to time they go down I’ll try a little later
Whatever you buy on Amazon, you run the risk of receiving counterfeit goods. I’d say 50 percent of what one buys, except for actual books, are counterfeit. I gave up up on Amazon a long time ago, except for books, because of this.
I now buy direct from the manufacturer. Yes, it sometimes costs a little more, but not that much more. It actually pays for itself because you’re assured of getting the real thing.
Elon messaged "Signal", as in the app...will be checking it out. He's pretty smart - about some things.
he yells to organize and fight and then says “no more protests” and yet doesn’t offer any options or organized anything himself.

Tech ‘wars’ are hot now.....trust those who love freedom can gain the ground they will need.
Communism starts slow, and then happens overnight.
what tech wars? They’re all on the same side.
Bannon said last week that he likes to trigger our side, that’s why he does it.
Nonsense...the big tech is after any and all platforms in the US that doesn’t adhere to their Global socialist agenda. ......perhaps we need to sign up abroad?
Go back to DU.
War requires communications and only people who are anxious to lose build their communications systems on platforms owned by the enemy.
Signal is a cross-platform encrypted messaging service developed by the Signal Foundation and Signal Messenger. It uses the Internet to send one-to-one and group messages, which can include files, voice notes, images and videos.[16] It can also be used to make one-to-one and group voice and video calls,[17][18] and the Android version can optionally function as an SMS app.[19]
Signal uses standard cellular telephone numbers as identifiers and secures all communications to other Signal users with end-to-end encryption. The apps include mechanisms by which users can independently verify the identity of their contacts and the integrity of the data channel.[19][20]
Signal’s software is free and open-source. Its clients are published under the GPLv3 license,[12][13][14] while the server code is published under the AGPLv3 license.[15] The Android app also includes third-party components which are closed-source.[21][self-published source] The non-profit Signal Foundation was launched in February 2018 with initial funding of $50 million from Brian Acton.[22] Signal has more than 10 million downloads on Android.[23]

Parler should have removed Lin Wood (D) calling for Pence’s machine gun execution & they should remove him now. He’s psycho & damaging us.
What would be our goals for a war? Honest question?
Yes it does. He was calling for killing Pence on Parler with lots of support for it.
