  • PoopsTech PooPsTech (@PoopsTech) reported

    Well it seems that Amazon AWS has made good on its treat and has pulled the rug from on the PARLER and they are down! I wonder what sites are the crazies are using now? May be this slap is going to wake the up! Wake up!

  • nathanpinard Nathan Allen Pinard (@nathanpinard) reported

    @Kirstenjoyweiss The servers themselves have been taken down as they were Amazon S3 servers. They have to find another provider, or do what Gab did and house their own servers in their own property.

  • dannywilco Danny (@dannywilco) reported

    @cloudpundit @QuinnyPig @awscloud They must have a shed ton of money to do baremetal on AWS over any other bare metal hosting provider. AWS are NOT cheap when it comes to renting an actual server. #ISmellBullshitOnTheBareMetal

  • poiThePoi Look up "Knuffelberen" (@poiThePoi) reported

    @jbminn @QuinnyPig @awscloud 80% "Yes, this is technical debt, we know" and 40% "Bob has never seen this specific failure case of MongoDB before and also has enough on his plate he never had the time to dig into what the hell the guy he replaced *actually did* until the outage"

  • RedBeardV2 RedBeard The Voluntaryist v2.0 (@RedBeardV2) reported

    @awscloud why would I want to host my business on your services knowing you will have no qualms about shutting my business down through policies that are subjectively applied? Taking a dependency on your ecosystem is a huge risk on its own let alone this disturbing behavior.

  • cseeman Corey Seeman (@cseeman) reported

    @Davidlaz @KTLA One thing about this - they cannot use the Amazon AWS Cloud service - but they can get a server and run the resource on their own - right?

  • randomfrequency Vincent Janelle (@randomfrequency) reported

    @gortok @QuinnyPig @awscloud (and by 'one box' I mean server grade gear and multiples of that, plus switches/etc).

  • DMEvanCT Evan Haston (@DMEvanCT) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud I think it's valid. I don't agree with a lot of the stuff on parlor and I think they should have come out against violence but aws should not have **** them down.

  • RobertG9981 Robert Gillan (@RobertG9981) reported

    @bmwhocking @awscloud Next move........ down Twitter. I mean we need to get rid of all those platforms that allow free flowing hate and discrimination ...... don't we? 🤔

  • JimAndrakakis Jim Andrakakis (@JimAndrakakis) reported

    @gortok @QuinnyPig @awscloud Judging from my workplace: no. But knowing is one thing. Rewriting/reconfiguring vast amounts of poorly written code, with the usual problems (eg people leaving & knowledge lost) is another matter completely.

  • NoTotalitarios Letras contra el totalitarismo 🥶 - 🏛️ ⚖️ 🌈 🐍🔻 (@NoTotalitarios) reported

    @juniorcasemiro @awscloud Probably, but until they make the migration Amazon took them down, and that is just what they pretended.

  • CurtisCal Curtis (@CurtisCal) reported

    @TitusNation @FBI How could anyone access Parler to scrape it if Amazon AWS had shut them down? Are we sure the hack didn't occur prior to last nite?

  • kennyblack_sd Omokehinde, I. (@kennyblack_sd) reported

    @AWSSupport I started by creating the signin page first. I tried to sign in with an email that isn't registered yet and I get this error `The username should either be a string or one of the sign in types`. Is this the right error message am supposed to get?

  • ZaxCal Texan (@ZaxCal) reported

    @juniorcasemiro @awscloud Ah yes. Because the MAGA crowd are the ones shutting down entire social media platforms. Makes sense.

  • bjrooney brendan (@bjrooney) reported

    @QuinnyPig @cloudpundit @awscloud Have had AWS close down a site since it had 1 non copyright LP out of millions. TBH there was an email sent out which was lost in spam. spent ages fault finding SGs etc but at the end of the day AWS have their own firewall. Once the product was removed we were back online.

  • AdamFad84 Corvus Key (@AdamFad84) reported

    It would be a shame if @awscloud also shut down service for newspapers that backed the election lies and the insurrection

  • deplorable_diva Dr. Deplorable Diva, G.Ed., B.S., Memology (@deplorable_diva) reported

    @bleutor @BDSixsmith Since the house thing is an analogy...there is only one other huge server farm like Amazon AWS and they have denied people service in the past in similar circumstances as well.

  • matvelloso Mat Velloso (@matvelloso) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud Given the current pattern of thinking, they probably assume that here too they can wear some tactical gear and Rambo their way out of this problem as well.

  • tx_buyer michael (@tx_buyer) reported

    @MsAvaArmstrong parler may not be up for a few weeks. @amazon AWS did their own book burning and shut them down.

  • LosTrains CM (@LosTrains) reported

    @parler_app lawsuit tries to say Parler and Twitter are the same thing because both contain content that promotes violence, using Pence as an example. But that is not the issue. As Amazon AWS said, Parler is "unable to effectively identify and remove content." That's the issue.

  • FaganOnline Ryan Fagan (@FaganOnline) reported

    Parler, a hotbed of anti-Semitic garbage, has been down since this morning and should stay down forever. Thank you @awscloud and all the other providers that pulled their relationships from Parler.

  • barnaby_salter Barnaby Salter (@barnaby_salter) reported

    @DMEvanCT @QuinnyPig @awscloud They didn't just shut them down, they have them an ultimatum weeks ago. Start moderating and stop allowing illegal things to be posted or go elsewhere.

  • kennyblack_sd Omokehinde, I. (@kennyblack_sd) reported

    @AWSSupport I thought I was supposed to get an error message like `email/user not registered or does not exist`. I selected email password in the cli when adding auth

  • BradenHolt Braden Holt (@BradenHolt) reported

    @mdhardeman @QuinnyPig @awscloud if they're telling the truth and they have tools to handle their instance config / orchestration and something like terraform to abstract their server mgmt (and that is a go forward solution) you can shave some time. but if they're directly using aws sdk it will be a mess.

  • Toddalio Todd Bee (@Toddalio) reported

    I sincerely hope that someone at @Amazon had the idea to auction off the opportunity to shut down Parler & give the proceeds to charity. If I worked at @AWScloud, I'd have made a bid to be the sysadmin who issues the "shutdown -h 0" command or destroys the VMs.

  • rishmishra James Mishra (@rishmishra) reported

    @ceeoreo_ I ordered an AWS Snowball with about 70 TB of data from Amazon S3. It took them a couple weeks to make it and mail it to me. It took a couple more weeks for me to copy it because I was bottlenecked by the speed of the NFS server I was copying my files into.

  • dryerson Dan Ryerson (@dryerson) reported

    @QuinnyPig @bhaines0 @awscloud No doubt data transfer is a big part of their spend. It's their definition of "bare metal" that I don't understand. Do they mean EC2 *.metal instances, Dedicated Hosts, VMC? Or is it a fancy term for server-based / IaaS?

  • ThatSMP Stefan Paletta (@ThatSMP) reported

    @QuinnyPig @awscloud DC-to-Cloud is such a mess because everyone's DCs are like Spaghetti on every layer. If you have your infra automation game right, switching VM provider is easy. Apparently Parler ran mostly off of EC2. I've seen S3 used for some things, and that's going to be the bigger problem.

  • schrickity Nathan Schrick (@schrickity) reported

    @AMZNforClimate @awscloud Cancel culture at work! If you don’t agree with me, block, remove, tear down, destroy, etc, etc. When did we get to a place where we can’t disagree about something and yet still be respectful?

  • reachhoustonseo Alfredo Ramos (@reachhoustonseo) reported

    @KenWebsterII Done and Moved away from @awscloud in favor of @backblaze. My cost went down by 95%.
