Parler app makes return to Apple after ban
Parler, the social media platform favored by conservatives before appearing banned above its association with the January 6 U.S. Capitol violence, made a go back to Apple's online market on Monday.

The move comes per month following the iPhone maker said it would permit the application with updates targeted at curbing incitements to violence.

Parler said in a good statement that it provided "incontrovertible evidence to Congress and the general public that... (its) scapegoating and deplatforming was profoundly unjust."

The business claimed to have more than 20 million users before being pulled from the Apple and Google online marketplaces and effectively turn off when Amazon Web Services cut ties over allegations the platform failed to stop incitement of violence by Donald Trump's supporters ahead of the January 6 siege of the US Capitol.

Separately, Parler announced that it had been promoting George Farmer to leader from chief operating officer, within a shakeup of its leadership.

"Parler began as a little, start-up company that differed from its Big Tech competition in its commitment to the free of charge market of strategies in the full spirit of the First Amendment," Farmer said.

"For the past 8 weeks I have caused a great incredible team of individuals, under the leadership of (interim CEO) Mark Meckler, to bring Parler rear online and return to Apple's App Store after we had been unfairly maligned by the media and its own allies found in Big Tech and Congress."

In line with the Washington Post, the version of Parler about Apple devices will be moderated with artificial intelligence to filter out hateful content, but these comments could be viewed on the net or other devices.

Parler, which calls itself "the no cost speech social networking," didn't confirm the statement by the Post, which said that posts called hate speech or perhaps with racial slurs could be viewed by clicking though on non-Apple devices.
