The social media app Parler went dark Sunday night after moves by Amazon, Google, and Apple to suspend it.
The app, which has billed itself as an unmoderated, free-speech-focused option, has come under fire after it was used by some to help coordinate last week's riots at the U.S. Capitol. Google and Apple have both pulled it from their app stores, while Amazon Web Services suspended it Sunday night.
Parler CEO John Matze says the app could be offline for up to a week, and claims the app was targeted by tech giants because it was "too successful too fast".
