Parler announced on Monday that it is officially relaunching its platform and will no longer have to rely on “high technology” to operate.
The announcement says the platform has been rebuilt on independent technology, giving it the freedom to operate as it sees fit after the company was shifted by major web application and service platforms in January after the Capitol riots.
“When Parler was shut down in January by those who want to silence tens of millions of Americans, our team came together, determined to keep our promise to our hard-working community that we will return stronger than ever, ”said Mark Meckler. Acting CEO at Parler, he said in the announcement.
Parler was suspended from Amazon’s web hosting services and from the Apple app store after the riot, when it was found to be full of numerous discussions by members about invading the Chapter.
Amazon and Apple gave Parler a chance to change its content moderation policy because it had few rules about what could be published on the platform. Instead of changing, Parler moved to a place where I say I can restart without restrictions.
“Parler is led by an experienced team and is here to stay. We will prosper as the first social platform dedicated to free expression, confidentiality and civil dialogue, “said Meckler.
Current users of the platform will be allowed on the site this week, while those who want to join will have to wait until next week, according to the announcement.
Parler is still looking for a permanent CEO after the board fired former CEO John Matze in a move in which Matze said he did not “participate.”
Although Parler said his platform is open to all points of view, it has become known as a site for right-wing users who believe that other major social platforms have censored conservative content.
