john matze is the ceo of parler he says we need new tech infrastructure.eed to be more than just liberal vs. conservative. i myself am a libertarian. i'm not a conservative. what i do believe is that we need to have principles that free speech and privacy should be respected. and apparently that's too much for big tech. and so we really need an alternative set of resources so people can develop software without worrying about these technology companies going after you. will: the important point here is that's not just about having alternative platforms. because platforms can be decommissioned. if amazon says you can't be on the internet. you can't be on the internet. is he talking about a different background infrastructure and dan bongino talked about it with us yesterday. what if gmail says we don't like your emaim and that note you are sending over to steve, will. maybe you should not be able to access g are mail anymore. the infrastructure behind the scenes is where you can cut everyone off from communication. steve: those are the gate keepers. you kno
