Parlar suing Amazon

Source: The Hill

Social media company Parler sued Amazon on Monday, alleging that its suspension from Amazon's hosting service violated antitrust law and breached the companies' contractual arrangement.

Seems this will probably not go anywhere seeing as Parlar violated Amazons terms of service.
