Parler, the once-controversial social media platform, is back in the spotlight under new ownership.
It’s relaunching now that a new media consortium led by Ryan Rhodes has purchased the site.
Parler aims to redefine itself as a bastion of free speech for users across the political spectrum.
WIRED magazine caught up with Rhodes, who expressed “Our goal is to make Parler what it could have been, as a true open platform for everybody to have discourse, right or left.”

New Beginnings
Established over three years ago, Parler initially gained traction as an alternative platform championing free speech.
However, its trajectory took a dramatic turn amidst the events of January 6, 2020.
Following a period of being offline, Parler has resurfaced under new ownership, with promises of providing a space for legal and unrestricted expression.
The platform’s reentry into the Apple App Store signifies a fresh start, hinting at a potential return to Google Play in the near future.
Parler and January 6
Undoubtedly, Parler’s involvement in the January 6 Capitol Hill riots remains a defining moment in its history.
