Parler files suit against Amazon Web Services

Good day all. Parler is still offline and may still be looking for a new home. (Epik is stating they have not talked with Parler) In the mean time, Parler has found new lawyers and have filed an antitrust and breech of contract suit against Amazon.

Now the case is very complicated, and I will not make any claims about understanding the nuances involved. There are others better suited to do that. However, the speed with which Parler was killed by Apple, Goolag and Amazon is probably going to make their defense much harder. As I understand it, Amazon was contractually required to give Parler 30 days notice, not the 30 hours they were given.

It also appears that the excuse used by Amazon, that Parler wasn’t removing obviously illegal content, was untrue. Then there is the issue of Twitter, or Twitler as it’s starting to be called now. They recently signed a multi-year contract with Amazon Web Services, (AWS) and Parler was a direct competitor, if very small.

Then, a few days before the murder of Parler, President Trump was banned from Twitler, ostensibly at the direction of Vijaya Gadde, Twitler’s PR Executive. When that happened, the Trump family started moving to Parler. President Trump had millions of people following him in Twitter, and they, along with many others fed up with Twitler’s censorship, jumped to Parler. With this, Parler’s app on the Apple and Goolag app stores suddenly jumped to the number one downloaded app.

At this point, Goolag killed the app in their store, preventing anyone from downloading it. The first Parler’s management heard about it was when they read about it in a news story. Goolag had leaked the story before they had notified Parler. Next Apple gave Parler 24 hours to start censoring their platform. Since this wasn’t going to happen, boom, the app was removed. Then AWS shut down the site.

Monday, January 11th, 2021, Parler filed suit against AWS in Washington State. They listed a bunch of charges, and as I mentioned, I am in no way qualified to speak to them. However, I have someone who is.

Mr. Frei seems to think that Parler has a good, if difficult to prove case. I think it will be interesting to watch. The Progressives, since the The Great Election Theft of 2020, have been about as subtle as a thermonuclear bomb going off. The optics alone would make any judge and jury go “Hmmm this looks very fishy.”

As to what happens next? I don’t know. Parler is seeking an injunction forcing Amazon to turn their site back on. Will that happen? From my unschooled point of view, Amazon did breech the contract by not providing the 30 day notice. As to the antitrust case? Again, from my point of view, it seems obvious that the “Big 5” tech companies did collude to destroy a small competitor of Twitler. How the courts see it is another matter.

What I will say is that these companies are no friend of the Constitution of the United States, especially the 1st Amendment. They have become nothing more then left wing propaganda centers that will destroy anyone who supports President Trump and the United States of America. I have a number of thoughts on what may happen in the next 6 months, but since I choose not to be rendered a nonperson by the Totalitarians, I’ll just hold them close for now. In the mean time, I wish Parler the best of luck and I hope they crucify AWS, Goolag, Crapple, Faceplant and Twitler.
