That's some really scary shit, how six filthy rich people can control 90% of the online communication.
People on the extreme left are too stupid to realise that they are actively advocating that everyone just becomes a consumer in the end. There will not be a Twitter for the average user if this goes on, with the reason: "well words on the internet can be too dangerous". You will literally only have blue tick Twitter users and Grey tick YouTubers with comments switched off.
Consider that 20-25 years ago people started to go on the internet as it had alternative voices to media corporations - tv - newspapers etc. The internet is slowly turning into the thing that people got bored with. Perhaps people who grew up with the internet already there don't realise that?
I reckon with communication being that easily controlled by these cowards (cowards, because they all seem to act in tandem with big bans - deplatforming) I don't see how marginalising Bitcoin is impossible.
People are also blind to the 2 other main reasons why Big Tech and Wall Street want to shut Parler down:
1) Big Tech social media and MSM competitor (hundreds of millions would migrate from Twitter, FB, etc.)
2) Parler CEO has vowed that his company would never collect and sell user data to govt, alphabet soups, or Wall Street
The powers that be won't be having it.

Security researchers claim that the scrapped posts are linked to accounts that posted them, and some of the video and image data have geolocation information. That is said also to include data from Parler’s “Verified Citizens,” users of the network who verified their identity by uploading photographs of government-issued IDs, such as a driver’s license.

Well that doesn't surprise me at all.
I'm sure the head of cyber security over there at Parler.com is literally like some incompetent guy named "Bob", probably the CEO's brother or college buddy.
No offense to our Bob, of course.
I mean, why ask Parler to sell their data when you can just hack them and take it?
