As you probably know by now all the ‘Big Tech’ companies have banned Donald Trump and his most vociferous allies like Sidney Powell and General Flynn from their various platforms, including even their family members! - in what is obviously felt a vital necessity of cutting off their means of communication to the outside world. As a response to this some were resorting to the Twitter alternative Parler, and so swiftly in this intense time Google and Apple have gone after Parler to try shut down that avenue also. It is through using such platforms that Trump and forces for democracy have been to some considerable degree able to bypass the corporate media, and thus now the dramatic rush to try to shut down any leakages in the control of the flow of information. This is all very double-edged though as it is ever more obvious what is going on - though I’m not quite sure how it could be getting any more obvious! There is nothing remotely subtle anymore, right now it is just a naked surge for raw power. It is pretty much clear and open-warfare.
Article on their dictatorial bullying of Parler here, the timing and purpose of which is so comically transparent. https://visiontimes.com/2021/01/09/big-tech-imposes-censorship-standards-on-competitor-parler-silences-trump-and-associates.html
