I hope they squeeze amazon for billions; but of course only lawyers will win.
My guess would be that Amazon settles. The fact that Parler mentioned they had 30 days means they must have a deal. Amazon knew when they chose to terminate with less notice that they were in violation, probably knowing that they would have to pay for that and not caring. If they drag it out, then yes, truly only the lawyers will win. I just don't see Amazon hurting themselves just on the principle of the thing, especially if the whole idea in canceling was to get good publicity. In that case, they will want to keep the settlement secret.
Pff, kek, "good publicity".
I was already avoiding amazon, but would still cheat here and there and buy little bullshit things that are just so easy to buy from them... NO MORE! I am actively shutting down everything AWS that I can at work right now, in fact, and calling meetings with other teams we support to shut down even more where possible. Fuck amazon right in the pussy.
And I was never even a parler fan; it's just the principle of the thing.
I would say that is reasonable. Anybody who is in the business of reproducing what a user put into a form should be wary. Amazon is unlikely to stop with Parler if they get away with it. You know how SJWs are.
What I'm trying to figure out is if businesses let Amazon do whatever they want in the first place, and why In other words: Why would a customer who is paying money to Amazon agree to be shut down arbitrarily and with little notice? Did anyone really sit there and think that Amazon would never abuse the right to do that?
