Some civil libertarians are concerned about fallout from the Capitol
riot, which disrupted but did not prevent certification of Biden=92s victor=

Since the violence on Capitol Hill, which killed four Trump supporters
and a policeman, Twitter, Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon have moved
to limit the reach of Trump=92s supporters and alleged conspiracy theorist
accounts.
Twitter permanently banned Trump on Friday after Facebook said he would
lose control of his account through at least Biden=92s inauguration on
Jan. 20. As Trump supporters migrated to =93free speech=94 social network
Parler, Apple and Google yanked the app from its smartphone platforms
and Amazon dropped its hosting of the platform.
