Parler is owned by private equity... For every day that the platform is down, the PE owners lose money. Easy fix is to jettison the guy that is pizzing off AWS, Google, AAPL... Trouble maker departs, and in a few days, all of the lights will come back on, albeit without all of the pro-Trump, election fraud discussion. PE owners back to making money. The proof of the pudding will be to see how many new Trump supporting customers bail on Parler after Parler capitulates to the Left...

That's pretty much what it looks like to me.
If this is the case, Parler will probably just die.

I hope they get it straightened out. The truth needs a way to get out to the people in these times.

It sounds like Bongino is contradicting himself. First, he says "some bad decisions were made that got us kicked off...". Then he says "We could have been back up in a week if they had bended knee..". Which is it?

He’s saying that if they were to be censored by Apple then they could have been back up and running in a week. But if they did that, they’d be just like Farce Book and Xwitter

Dan could have easily given a 50,000ft overview of what those mistakes were. He didn't.

I think one of the mistakes he alluded to was having their hosting done by AWS.

Then he says "We could have been back up in a week if they had bended knee..". Which is it? He said they were not bending a knee to restrictive Apple Covenants. Perhaps the "bad decisions" we're tied to text messages sent to John from AWS, Apple, etc, and how John responded.

He said the communications might be made public. Recall they are still preparing for a lawsuit.

Stopped at the 3 minute mark. Multiple instances of Bongino's body language not matching the words coming out of his mouth...

Bongino stands to lose a decent amount of money. I don’t know who to believe at this point...

Sounds to me like the owners didn’t like the idea that the CEO put all his eggs in the AWS basket, knowing full well after the fact this could happen. Compounded by the CEOs lethargic response to find a different host, which ultimately would require some free speech concessions that Dan didn’t agree with.
