Apple has banned Parler from its app store for failing to remove content that promotes violence

from its Play Store, citing similar reasons, Insider's Tyler Sonnemaker reported.

"We're aware of continued posting in the Parler app that seeks to incite ongoing violence in the US. We recognize that there can be reasonable debate about content policies and that it can be difficult for apps to immediately remove all violative content, but for us to distribute an app through Google Play, we do require that apps implement robust moderation for egregious content," a Google spokesperson told Insider.

Both bans make Parler unavailable in the app stores run by Apple and Google. The app may still be able to be accessed through third-party app stores or mobile browsers.Your morning cheat sheet to get you caught up on what you need to know in tech.

Apple can say anything but he can't silence everyone... Godcomment...

You think this is good until you look at Iran, North Korea, ... That’s how it started over there too

connellmcshane WTF world are we living in? This is unfathomable.

Ironically, the only remaining app store that could allow Parler is China's Huawei.

If they’d done it six months ago the cop might not be dead
