"Not Many Changes Required" for Parler to Return to Apple Store

Following the storming of the U.S. Capitol, Apple and other large tech companies made the decision to remove the right-wing social media network Parler from their app stores due to what they saw as its role in inciting violence.

In April 2021, a number of  websites reported that Parler was in talks with Apple on the subject of returning to the Apple Store. Some stated that Parler would only return to the store if it conformed to “left-wing bias” and infringed on free speech. They further claimed that the supposed new rules would forbid Parler users from discussing election fraud, satanism, vaccines and other controversial subject matter.
