You couldn't be MORE wrong:
- Parler was not de-listed on Android's "store" at all, but Apple DID de-list them - but not for politics... when they were de-platformed, they became in violation of Apple's agreements.
Why do you insist on telling people they're wrong when a simple Google search will prove that you are either lying or woefully ignorant? Parler WAS pulled from Google Play Store -- see https://edition.cnn.com/2021/01/08/tech/parler-google-play-removed/index.html for the story.
OK, that must've come after Apple did it - and after they were de-platformed. I freely admit I haven't "stayed up" with the Parler story - and why would I? It's not something I find interesting:
- They were shut-off by AWS (Amazon Web Services) - so what? There are literally dozens of big-name competitors, and hundreds of smaller ones...
What would you do if your cell carrier dropped your service? Complain? File a lawsuit? Or, walk over to another carrier and start service with them!
This has been a NON-Story from the beginning!
When we say "We live in a free society" that freedom cuts both ways!
- ISPs have disconnected users because of torrenting DMCA-protected files... complaints were made to the FCC, who supported the decision to "de-platform" users who the carrier didn't want to support they "way they used the service"
- Phone companies have disconnected users because of complaints of spam calling... complaints were made to the FCC... same result: they don't HAVE to keep you as a customer.
Personally, with the new law in Florida purporting to fine Twitter or FB if they kick out a political candidate... if I was Twitter (or FB), as soon as the first fine was levied, I'd cutoff the entire State! Bye Bye!
For someone who can't be bothered enough to perform even basic research, you sure seem invested in spewing many unnecessary lines of prose on the subject.

Again: what would motivate me to re-research (or, more correctly, update) my earlier research... This is a DUMB topic for the reasons given...
Parler is no-longer de-platformed - they found a new host. (I have no idea if they're back on Apple's or Google's phone-app stores - and I don't care).
You're like children whose ice cream was dropped - 6 months ago - and you still want to hash out why it happened! Be an adult: buy another cone!

You got busted and now you are calling us children.
Ya gotta love liberals and their mental illness.

Are you admitting to "big tech" colluding to de-platform Parler?
As the supreme expert in absolutely everything, you would know that Zuckerberg and Dorsey admitted that they work together (all of "big tech") on issues like this. I forgot what the name of the program is, but you can find it on YouTube.
Sen Josh Hawley talked about it and asked the question. Zuck and Dorsey answered the question and the Google head wouldn't give a direct answer.
This is why Alex Jones (regardless of what you may think of him) was de-personed within 1 hour by all of "big tech". Twitter didn't immediately de-platform him but did shortly after using a video clip of him confronting a CNN twat to finally justifying his removal, even though it had nothing to do with Twitter.

And yet, you continue to bloviate on the topic. Newsflash, sugarplum: People who think a topic is "dumb" generally don't engage with it on Internet forums. They pass it by. So you're now even lying about your own motivations. Sad and pathetic.
Why can't you just admit that you'd rather lie and gaslight about a topic than to research it so you can engage in civil debate? That refreshing burst of honesty might do you some good.

... and people wonder why so few people ever admit to mistakes online. I admitted that my facts might be (I didn't re-research it - what would be the point?) have been outdated. They were right at one point, but not later... ok, yes, I was wrong - and I admitted it! Honestly, that should be the end of it, but not for you guys! Talk about gaslighting!
And I will re-iterate that none of it matters anymore because Parler is online again with another hosting provider. I challenge you to find a significant change in Parler present because they're on this new platform vs. AWS!
And how ABSURD that you present yourselves as Conservatives, but yet want to curb the rights of independent, non-monopolistic businesses from running their enterprises as they see fit!
So, with that said: is the topic to be about big-tech's rights to operate their own businesses, or is it about the fact that I admitted one of my facts was out-dated? (Have either of you ever admitted to being wrong here? LOL)
-
But you said it as if you were an absolute expert on the topic.
You finally admitted that you talked out of your ass over this because you weren't interested enough in the topic.
Clearly, in your version of being a conservative "collusion" is an acceptable practice.
When businesses form a cabal, they are monopolistic.

So Amazon & Google (truly BITTER rivals in business) are in a cabal, trying to suppress the speech of Trumpites... Oh, and they're joined by Microsoft and Apple (two more BITTER rivals)... and IBM and Oracle (more BITTER rivals)... but they're all agreed: collude to silence people they don't agree with politically (in spite of the fact that IBM & Oracle usually back Conservatives more than the liberals)... all because they CONTROL the Internet...
Deluded conspiracy theory anybody?
Oh, and the Chinese, and 189 other foreign countries all colluded (another cabal?) to create the HOAX that was COVID-19 ... solely to oust Trump from office! Yeah - that's the ticket!
-
Look - Google is large-enough in the search world to be almost a monopoly... they handle more than 92% of the World's Internet Searches (either directly, or because smaller search engines use Google as a back-end)...
Except for one thing: one of the requirements to be a monopoly is for there to be a significant barrier to entry. For example, it'd be incredibly expensive for an alternative phone company to come in and run new wires to every address in your town... so the local phone company really IS a monopoly, and is under partial Government control because of it.
That's where "Internet Monopoly" claims fail to meet the test: the only thing stopping Bing (which accounts for about 3% of Internet searches in 2nd place) from handling 100% of Google's workload is the choices of the Internet community! (They already have the capacity - do a Bing search for Azure (the cloud, not the color))...
The Internet is fickle... Facebook replaced MySpace in a matter of a few very short years.... Bing made HUGE inroads against Google in Internet Search - at one time garnering over 20% of the traffic... but then they lost it!
Other new services will arise... patience padawan...
The cost of "building" an alternative to Twitter isn't in the mechanics or the infrastructure (you can build your Twitter alternative in any of the big cloud vendor's data centers and only pay for what you use... the site can literally grow as your user base does (and shrink as your user base does)... not just month-to-month, or week-to-week... but minute-to-minute! (Cloud infrastructure is what I do... Trust me, unless they were careless or stupid, Parler could have been back up in another cloud vendor in less than a day!
No, what's stopping Parler from challenging Twitter (or Facebook) is purely the choices of people as to which provider (or platform) they want to be on...

WOW, the histrionics and strawman arguments. Who woulda thunk a liberal would do that.
Not every tech company is involved with this censorship of conservatives. DUH!!!
Clearly, you are high on Pelosi's panty fumes and can't make a reasonable argument.
