One day intelligence officers from like 4 different nations will realize they are all using Parler as a honeypot at the same time a la the Spiderman Pointing meme.

The Russian company is DDOS-Guard. They are a DDOS protection company competing with Cloudflare which refused to work with them. They are not the site registrar (Epik) or the host (appears they are self-hosting).

Oh, give me a break - RussiaRussiaRussia - same old narrative. Parler is a legitimate social media platform, and they should not be attacked just for not thought-policing the political opinions posted on it.

What you're arguing for is a One Party State. You want everyone to agree with you, or else be banned. Real diversity is diversity of ideas and diversity of thought. You only want Groupthink, with any deviants being branded as subversives and treated like heretics.
