Fox News contributor Dan Bongino, who also has a stake in Parler, breaks down how he got the news of a possible Parler ban.
After President Trump got permanently banned from Twitter, it was announced he has created an account with Parler, a free-speech platform that is partially owned by Bongino. As soon as big tech got wind of this, Google Playstore removed the app:
“In order to protect user safety on Google Play, our longstanding policies require that apps displaying user-generated content have moderation policies and enforcement that removes egregious content like posts that incite violence. All developers agree to these terms and we have reminded Parler of this clear policy in recent months,” the statement said. “We’re aware of continued posting in the Parler app that seeks to incite ongoing violence in the US. We recognize that there can be reasonable debate about content policies and that it can be difficult for apps to immediately remove all violative content, but for us to distribute an app through Google Play, we do require that apps implement robust moderation for egregious content. In light of this ongoing and urgent public safety threat, we are suspending the app’s listings from the Play Store until it addresses these issues.”
Now Apple is threatening to remove the app as well.
The Biden administration hasn’t even been inaugurated yet and the police state apparatus has already been put in place and no Trump supporter will be spared.
