If it does go live, I'm guessing that ISPs will be next to go to bat and filter out Freedom Social Network after Trump incites another riot.
 
i dont think that is really junior

so maybe 55%
 
Oh right, it says "fan page". Oops.
 
"We will not Break, Give In and NEVER SURRENDER!!"

So you'll not never surrender? Or you will Give In?
 
That's one hell of a logo.

Let treedom ring!
 
Feels like it's all a ploy by elites through their corporate lackeys. Trump figured he could appeal to some process/law. They turned the tables on him. Dumbass didn't realize he had no chance. Now he, ain't even allowed to express himself through twitter, or whatever the fuck.
 
Arnold's speech was awesome as someone who lived the effects of Nazism, as an immigrant and as someone who held office.
 
I don't think the comparison with the night of broken glass was a good comparison after a few mins reading about it

kristallnacht
Jewish homes, hospitals and schools were ransacked as attackers demolished buildings with sledgehammers.[5] Rioters destroyed 267 synagogues throughout Germany, Austria and the Sudetenland.[6] Over 7,000 Jewish businesses were damaged or destroyed,[7][8] and 30,000 Jewish men were arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps.[9]
 
And now Parler is offline. But there's more.. their database/content was leaked by hackers last night. Twilio is a company that does SMS/telephony/second factor authentication type of services. Parler was using them for their 'Forgot your password, click here to recover' feature. Once Twilio disabled Parler's service last night, that reset password feature was letting anyone reset any account's password because it was badly engineered. A hacker was able to id an account that was set as an Administrator, reset it's password and gain access, then she created additional admins. With admin privileges they were able to get the API keys, the API is how the different apps (Android app, iPhone app, website) access the database/content. And the hacker spread the word to get help backing up everything before Amazon took them offline, 77 TB of content.

But there's even more.. Parler never really deleted any content, any posts or media. Once a user deleted something it was only marked as 'deleted' in the database, hidden from the user but kept in the database/file system. After the Jan 6th event, realizing the major fuck up that had happened, and Trump throwing them under the bus, tons of people started deleting their posts, including people that posted from the Capitol. Users thought they had deleted evidence but now it's in the hands of the archive.org team and, pretty soon or already, the FBI.

But there's one last goodie surprise from Parler, they didn't scrub the media files uploaded. Scrubbing is deleting the EXIF metadata that pictures and videos save that categorizes such things as the time and date a photo/video was taken, geolocation data of where a photo/video was taken, the device id the photo/video was taken with. I'm sure not many were using burners, using their Verizon/ATT subsidized phones. The general practice of most websites is to scrub the metadata because precisely it could be a privacy fuck up but in Parler's unwisdom they didn't.

I dunno man, maybe. Ask your parents who the Nazis were and how many people were killed in the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic and who did it, they may know better than me.
 
I should ask my parents? You don't think I've been raised on that history? Maybe I need Austrian Shwarzaneger's opinion. How arrogant and presumptuous.
Btw, it was the USSR who defeated your fucking Nazis. In case you didn't know :hattip:

But my point here being, the power of the state, ie our corporate oligarchy, with overreaching control, the imperialist war mongers are the Nazis. Not a few powerless country bumpkins descending on the Capital in a hopeless attempt to preserve their ever shrinking rights.
 
Can someone tell me how Facebook and Twitter can do the things they are doing right now considering they are not private companies?

They're still private, in the sense that they aren't govt-owned.

But they should probably be regulated at this point.

What do you mean?

The main difference between being a privately owned company and a publicly traded company is one of financial disclosure.

I don't think being publicly traded has any bearing on the free speech issue that people are trying to make this into.

Are you talking about restricting accounts? It does not matter whether they are publicly listed or not. They can refuse to offer service.
 
Any private (non govt owned) business can refuse anyone service provided they don't discriminate against a protected class (generally race, gender, etc). Just being someone who management doesn't like because of your dress, treatment of the staff, if you have a crooked nose, or if you use the office of the presidency to incite riots, can subject you to removal.

Some businesses that are particularly local can even discriminate based on race/sex/etc. Though at this point these are probably mostly theoretical.
