How is Trump Social Network going to handle:

  • being deplatformed by banks
  • being deplatformed by web hosting
  • being deplatformed by domain registrar and DNS

?

He can do all those things himself.

Nope, if the private companies running the Internet backbone refuse to connect to your servers, you're pretty much stuck. Doesn't do any good to set up your own server room when no telecom company will connect to it.

Hardcore Trump supporters would use custom DNS, but it would lose all the normal people.

He and his people will have expected and made certain he can't be cancelled out the door.

He's rich enough to be his own bank for short term capital issues.

If I can build a mini web host Beowulf cluster with home pcs then a billionaire can have one made

Domain registration is harder, but all the google competition would jump at the chance to gain market share

He'll have all those things handled before he launches. I guarantee it.
