Apple threatens to ban far-right social media platform Parler from its App Store amid complaints it was used to 'plan, coordinate, and facilitate' attempted insurrection

Google has removed the far-right social media app Parler from its Play Store for continuing to allow violence-inciting content in violation of the company's policies, a spokesperson told Business Insider.

"In light of this ongoing and urgent public safety threat, we are suspending the app's listings from the Play Store until it addresses these issues."

Parler la facha. Será que los idiotas entenderán que Fascismo y Libertad de Expresión son términos antagónicos y que se excluyen entre sí. FASCISMO ES CENSURA. Los progres y sus cosas 🤦‍♂️

BoycottApple

Apple cucked out like fags

What’s the f))$&ing hold up

Do it NOW!

Threatens? No wonder why racism persists, no consequence

Wow the privates companies has more power... Probably you celebrate it today but tomorrow, when they decide stop or eliminate any social media platform, that you like? They can not decide for you... You take an election... Orwell saw it...

Aquí los únicos terroristas son ustedes... Son los aguantadotes del Partido Demócrata, ANTIFA y Black Lives Matter... Nosotros sólo ejercemos nuestro derecho al discernimiento y a expresarnos libremente...

They should. That app is a hate machine

Apple Please do this.

if social media platform Parler is far-right, Twitter is far-left?

Apple JustDoIt

Do it Apple

Apple must do it now. Don't be stupid. If not Biden should bring full force of the law against Apple. Stop buying Apple products.

Don’t threaten just do it already.

Just fucking do it. The threats haven't stopped.

Where do these “complaints “ come from? Don’t be dumb. Ask questions, people!

'Far right' is it Business Insider, to uphold actual free speech? Pathetic 'journalism'.

Cruellaisdevine Ban it.

Communism now rules our once great country

Oh but it was fine when FB and Twitter were used to incite 2 billion in damages and countless lives during the BLM riots last year? FFS

Great news 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Apple must ban Parler and stop extremism in its platform.

Crazy how a free speech website is considered far right lmao

NOW do the NRA

Lots of fake news in this headline

Apple, did you ban apps that were used by protestors in hong kong and rioters in numerous US cities last year? serious question.

It wasn't an 'attempted' insurrection. It was an insurrection.
