Apple & Google have removed the app and the Parler platform has been shut down by Amazon web hosting because the folks who run Parler were unwilling to moderate violent speech and the coordination of folks committing sedition, insurrection, rioting and other unlawful activities.

https://www.apple.com/feedback/ I was far from that Board Room when these decisions were made but my guess is this response from some was to be expected. I wouldn’t express on here my own beliefs on the matter, it’s not appropriate, I just know it doesn’t belong here. You asked for an email address. My supplying it is not in any way either encouragement to use it or not use it. It is easy to locate. I just know this discussion does not belong here.
