‘It could be never’: Parler CEO says social app may not return

Al Jazeera  

Several online service providers including Amazon, Apple and Google have cut off Parler following the storming of the US Capitol by Trump supporters, accusing it of allowing violent content. Social media platform Parler, which has gone dark after being cut off by prominent service providers that accused the app of failing to police violent content, may never get back online, said its CEO John Matze. He said the best thing would be if Parler could get back on Amazon.com Inc. Parler, which claims it had more than 12 million users, on Monday filed a lawsuit against Amazon’s cloud computing division. Matze said, “It’s hard to keep track of how many people are telling us that we can no longer do business with them.” He said Parler had also been booted from online payments service Stripe and had lost its Scylla Enterprise database as well as access to Twilio Inc and Slack Technologies Inc, a popular workplace messaging app. Matze said Parler relies on about 600 paid and unpaid “jurors” to make decisions in small groups on problematic content.
