In the new lawsuit, filed Tuesday, Parler said Amazon defamed the social app by making it a scapegoat for the Jan. 6 insurrection. The company complained that Twitter and Facebook also hosted content related to attack. “Because of’s malicious defamatory statements, Parler’s public reputation suffered severe damage and Parler has had many potential service providers refuse to work with it, hampering and delaying its ability to get back online,” the company said in the suit.
In a statement, an Amazon rep said in part, “AWS provides technology and services to customers across the political spectrum, and we respect Parler’s right to determine for itself what content it will allow. However, as shown by the evidence in Parler’s federal lawsuit, it was clear that there was significant content on Parler that encouraged and incited violence against others, which is a violation of our terms of service.
