[QUOTE="Rez Exelon, post: 3497214, member: 5800"] I know right? Like there was a place I used to eat in Tulsa that was really delicious BBQ but got shut down for repeatedly failing health inspections. WTH? I should be able to make a decision if I still want to eat there and risk my life, or at minimum my bumhole. I think of it this way: In order to to business the restaurants have to get a license (which so far no one has complained about here) and agree to operate under certain conditions. Almost like a terms of service. If they break those terms of service, they get terminated from being legal. Now, if we apply that to this situation, the group Parler in this case, signed a terms of service that presumably included language such as "don't use your platform to incite violence and insurrection at the US Capitol" or some other clause that would have that effect. So when they violated that, then their operations got terminated. My point here being is not to diminish your gripe, but there are some similarities and key differences between the two. On the ARFCom side I didn't really notice as there's only a few threads I follow and I tend to keep them pinned. I'd imagine that a site like ARFCom would have a much better chance at legal action though as they worked to actively moderate to stay inside of a ToS whereas Parler specifically stated that they believed anything goes.
