A year and a half after it was removed from Google’s Play Store, Parler, a Twitter alternative that attracts conservatives, has returned to the showcase for Android apps.
Why it matters: Google removed Parler following the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, which was incited by misinformation and violent speech online.
Details: Beginning Friday, Parler will be available for download in Google’s Play Store, in addition to Apple’s App Store, where it was brought back in April 2021.
What they’re saying: “As we’ve long stated, apps are able to appear on Google Play provided they comply with Play’s developer policies,” a Google spokesperson told Axios.
The big picture. Big Tech platforms took unprecedented measures to kick users and apps off of their platforms following the Capitol siege, including former President Donald Trump.
