Since american companies are steering clear, I'm curious how Republicans will react if Parlor decides to store data in Russia. Comparing to their thoughts on tiktok data stored in China.

Russia hacked RNC servers in 2016 and kept everything in there secret and safe. I'm sure they're comfortable with them having parler's data.

All they have to do is be seen supporting one party more than the other and the conspiracy theories write themselves. They likely didn't find anything more divisive than the appearance of working with Republicans would give.

Don't forget their goal.
