Gab was a alternative to facebook.

2018-10-31 14:12:10 UTC  

i was pretty active there

2018-10-31 14:12:13 UTC  

Now gab is gone... we lost our free speech on internet.

2018-10-31 14:12:33 UTC  

"If you don't like it, start your own"

Well we would but you punish us for that too!

2018-10-31 14:12:33 UTC  

How can you have free speech if the services offered censor, then any new services created is shut down.

2018-10-31 14:12:44 UTC  

you can't

2018-10-31 14:12:46 UTC  

thats why its a problem

2018-10-31 14:12:50 UTC  

Exactly.

2018-10-31 14:12:56 UTC  

we should start our own server hosting service

2018-10-31 14:13:04 UTC  

Their obsessive need for control has killed free speech.

2018-10-31 14:13:07 UTC  

Tim-servers? 😛

2018-10-31 14:13:07 UTC  

why arnt we trying?

2018-10-31 14:13:13 UTC  

no one has the funds

2018-10-31 14:13:19 UTC  

nor tech

2018-10-31 14:13:23 UTC  

All the services is in Silcon Valley.

2018-10-31 14:13:33 UTC  

All servers too.

2018-10-31 14:13:38 UTC  

not unless we band together SOVIET NATIONAL ANTHEM INTENSIFIES

2018-10-31 14:13:48 UTC  

OUR SERVERS

2018-10-31 14:13:55 UTC  

The problem isn't tech. Anyone can get the core tech.

2018-10-31 14:14:18 UTC  

There are plenty of hosts but they're all subject to the ToS of backbone providers. Not sure how stringent they are as that's not something I've ever had to deal with.

2018-10-31 14:14:23 UTC  

The issue is government intervention in the tech space. ISPs, domain services, IP in general, etc. are heavily interfered by government at many levels.

2018-10-31 14:14:33 UTC  

let us all buy loans and make a startup company

2018-10-31 14:14:38 UTC  

god

2018-10-31 14:14:46 UTC  

is it so hard?

2018-10-31 14:14:57 UTC  

banks will block you

2018-10-31 14:14:59 UTC  

like they did to gab

2018-10-31 14:15:00 UTC  

Gab has spent the past 48 hours proudly working with the DOJ and FBI to bring justice to an alleged terrorist. Because of the data we provided, they now have plenty of evidence for their case. In the midst of this Gab has been no-platformed by essential internet infrastructure providers at every level. We are the most censored, smeared, and no-platformed startup in history, which means we are a threat to the media and to the Silicon Valley Oligarchy.

Gab isn’t going anywhere.

It doesn’t matter what you write. It doesn’t matter what the sophist talking heads say on TV. It doesn’t matter what verified nobodies say on Twitter. We have plenty of options, resources, and support. We will exercise every possible avenue to keep Gab online and defend free speech and individual liberty for all people.

You have all just made Gab a nationally recognized brand as the home of free speech online at a time when Silicon Valley is stifling political speech they disagree with to interfere in a US election.

The internet is not reality. TV is not reality. 80% of normal everyday people agree with Gab and support free expression and liberty. The online outrage mob and mainstream media spin machine are the minority opinion. People are waking up, so please keep pointing the finger at a social network instead of pointing the finger at the alleged shooter who holds sole responsibility for his actions.

No-platform us all you want. Ban us all you want. Smear us all you want.

You can’t stop an idea.

As we transition to a new hosting provider Gab will be inaccessible for a period of time. We are working around the clock to get Gab.com back online. Thank you and remember to speak freely.

why not just lie to them and say we are starting our own coffee business

2018-10-31 14:15:49 UTC  

Intervention in finance is even more pervasive. Hence why there is such a limited set of payment processors.

2018-10-31 14:15:53 UTC  

That'd be fraud.

2018-10-31 14:15:56 UTC  

secretly makes a server provider

2018-10-31 14:16:01 UTC  

LIKE A BOSS

2018-10-31 14:16:05 UTC  

Which media company successfully argued you have no freedoms on the internet?

2018-10-31 14:17:10 UTC  

They succeeded on the internet.

2018-10-31 14:17:16 UTC  

they all usually fall silent on the issue

2018-10-31 14:17:22 UTC  

so they can abuse it later

2018-10-31 14:17:35 UTC  

Now that we don't have any way to community, how are we going to work together to band together against their attempts at taking away our amendments?

2018-10-31 14:18:13 UTC  

Bloomberg is already going after our 2nd amendment.

2018-10-31 14:18:39 UTC  

This is why I advocated for so many years, protect free speech and even hate speech on internet.

2018-10-31 14:19:05 UTC  

If the person with a ideology you don't like can't speak his mind, society will eventually change and you will be the one hated.
