Gab Reponds To Being Deplatformed In Wake Of Synagogue Shooting: “We Are A Threat To The Media &… Silicon Valley Oligarchy”
“In the midst of this Gab has been no-platformed by essential internet infrastructure providers at every level,” he continued. “We are the most censored, smeared, and no-platformed startup in history, which means we are a threat to the media and to the Silicon Valley Oligarchy.”

Up and coming social media platform Gab.com was taken offline by its hosting company following the synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at Tree of Life this week that left 11 people dead. The reason? The shooter used their platform to post his threats and venomous hatred of Jews. So, why should that be Gab’s problem? It isn’t, but it’s being made out to be that way so that a precedent is set for simply removing platforms, which are not publishers, for any reason their hosting company thinks appropriate, even though there are protections in the law for platforms like Gab. Facebook crossed the line on that a long time ago when they decided to be censors. However, Gab’s CEO believes it demonstrates they are a real threat to the state-controlled media and “the Silicon Valley Oligarchy.”
In a post that comes up at Gab.com, CEO Andrew Torba declared that the social media startup had been working with the Justice Department and the FBI to bring 46-year-old Robert Bowers to justice following the shooting.
