Parler, the right-wing friendly social network
that was forced offline after supporters of
then-President Donald Trump attacked the
U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, has filed a new lawsuit
against Amazon.
Amazon Web Services (AWS), the Seattle tech
giant’s cloud-computing division, stopped
working with Parler in January over what
Amazon said was Parler’s inability to moderate
violent content of the kind that spurred
supporters of Trump.
Parler went back online online two weeks ago,
hosted by SkySilk, a Los Angeles-based cloud-
computing outfit.
The Seattle Times reports that Parler’s new
lawsuit, filed late Tuesday in King County
Superior Court, alleges a host of contractual
offenses, as well as deceptive and unfair trade
practices and defamation.
