Here’s this weekend’s podcast, normally exclusive media for our members, but with the important events of the last week, I thought it would be a good one to share.

I did not and would not sign up for any social media service that wanted both my telephone number and my driver’s license. In this day and age, there is no reason to provide such important information to potentially compromised entities like Parler. An email to verify registration? OK. A cell number for two-factor authentication? I understand why you would want that for security purposes. But a driver’s license? Are you kidding me?
This is why I am on GAB and not Parler. Andrew Torba is a Christian who understands that you have to own your own servers. They control their own platform and have been very good at avoiding the mistakes that Parler has made.
And there are now reports that Parler got hacked last night big-time. If true, then the bad guys now have your data.

Good comments from RedMoon. Appreciate him taking the time to write it. Agree, didn’t know about Andrew Torba – I’ll check out GAB.

Tammy,
I feel it boils down to analytics. Big Tech knows that advertisers look at highest traffic to purchase/buy ads. Big Tech wants to hit conservatives in the wallets. Taking our freedom of speech away is obvious to me, but I feel Big Tech is trying to prove they control who becomes successful and who does’t. Thoughts?
