80 terabytes at 1.8 gigabits per second.

That’s 241591910 bytes per second. Rounded up to 250MB/Sec.

80 Terabytes is 8.796093022×10¹³ bytes.

Divided by 250MB/Sec is around 335544 seconds.

Divided by 3600 seconds in a hour you get 93 hours at full throttle.

Color me skeptical. And check my math.

What makes most people relatively safe is that there is so much data and so many people. The NSA, for example, has EVERYTHING. They can’t sort it all out and don’t care what people think. If you behaved your exposure is less.

I was on Parler. I did not send them my drivers license info. I thought that was crazy

Users did from what their phones included in photos and videos those users attached.

Don’t get your hopes up for a quick return. I don’t think it happens.

I thought we weren’t twittering here anymore :)

It’s a personal choice but I won’t go anywhere near Twitter. They shut down the President of the United States.

I don’t know if it is true, but assuming it is, your ID scan would also not be available publicly on the web.

Parler is unlikely to rebound quickly, if at all. As the Duckbill Group’s Corey Quinn recently explained on Twitter, migrating a large product off AWS can take months of staging and possibly years to execute. Apps that integrate AWS’s wide array of services cannot be easily transposed onto a different hosting environment, Quinn said.

I guess parler was hacked in November. The hacker said they got pics(driver's licenses?) and emails, Matze claimed all they got was public info.

Conflicting stories/information I guess...”Epik will host”...”Epik says no contact w/Parler”, etc, etc.:

metadata, like exif for a photo, is recorded by digital cameras. People don’t know it’s there and can be stripped out before uploading to the web. There’s usually settings on the device to not have it record meta/exif but if people don’t know it exists, they don’t know to turn it off. Not sure if you can turn it off on cell phones. Digital cameras don’t record location because they don’t have gps but a phone does.

Gives you an idea of just how much info google/apple can get from you. Even when you turn off gps(location services), they still do it because google is evil.

Parler should sue Twilio for announcing they would stop their verification services before AWS shut them down. That’s how the hackers were able to get in. A nice class action lawsuit against Twilio might make them think again about joining the Woke Army.

Regardless of turning off geotagging in android, do you really believe google doesn’t turn it back on whenever they feel like it? It might automatically turn on as soon as you record video and then turn back off when done.

If they are suing they should add them. Obviously all these companies acted together.

“Meanwhile back at twitter, fakebook and google, iran still uses big tech as a base for their anti-Semitism”

I hear ISIS has active Facebook accounts too.

Why would you think Google can do anything with anyone's android phone?
I know Google sells their own phone called Google Pixel.
