It is unclear how long the site will be down for.
Amazon has suspended Parler from the use of its web hosting services, with the site being forced offline at 11:59 PM on Sunday, Pacific Time.
Following the pro-Trump protests at the Capitol on Wednesday, Parler had been subject to severe scrutiny, and accused of promoting violence. President Trump, and a number of his supporters, were depersoned on many websites, most notably Twitter, with the Big Tech giants claiming that the President and others were inciting violence.
Parler was next to be attacked by Big Tech corporations. Google was the first to act, immediately removing the free speech platform from its Play Store. Apple followed on Saturday, after giving Parler 24 hours to change its policies, a timeframe criticised as being far too short. Twitter’s CEO Jack Dorsey celebrated the ban, posting a tweet showing that Parler was now no longer the number one free app on the App Store, with a heart emoji.
