I went to Parler to check out the claims about requiring a ss number

to sign up. Right away I found this in their 'terms of service'.

Parler, LLC and its affiliates (“Company,” “we,” “our,” and/or “us”) value the privacy of
individuals who use our social news application, website, and related services (collectively, our

(Bolding is mine)

So yes.... Many Parler members SS numbers and IDs probably where compromised if they chose to join the 'Influencer Network'. And what self respecting fascist and Trumpazoid wouldn't want to join such a fancy, powerful sounding network?


Tots and Pears idiots...



Edited to add: Any doubt that the Trumpazoids have about the security of Parler MUST be exploited. Their ingrained paranoia will be their downfall when all is said and done.

Sow the fields folks.....plant the doubt.

Peace.
