I feel like Parler is just a setup for an anti-trust lawsuit, and that's why they haven't made their own servers yet.

They built their platform on AWS, they were tightly coupled. I think it is feasible they could move to another cloud type host but there are not many and they are all huge corporations. Parler had the wrong people in technical positions, they set up a site that required a phone number, it had no public reading access and they trusted Amazon.

Parler was not setup just for an anti-trust suit, they just didn't see this coming and while we know better, I do understand them trusting Amazon. Why was Parler really banned from AWS? It is very clearly because Trump was going to move to it, the reason for the ban was to remove Trump's voice.

I think Parler should win their suit and get award huge damages, what Amazon did was disgusting.

The courts will find a hate-speech exemption and deny their case. Anyone relying on remedies through the judicial system is setting themselves up for disappointment
