Also Dan Bongino worked for Obama's secret service. Kind of suspect. Like why on earth would be collecting Drivers License photos for social media? Very suspicious.

I never had to show any picture ID of any kind for my parler account. I won't join any site that requires that. They often want a cell phone number as proof of ID.
You’re correct.
A photo ID wasn’t required AFAIK, but even the phone number was a no-deal for me.
I almost got a burner number to sign up, but was saved the hassle when Parler self-destructed first.
Understand complete Fren! I refused for a long time to give a phone number for one of these accounts. None of the people I knew personally ever experienced any issues so I finally gave in several months ago. I have to say I haven't had a single issue with the sites that have a cell number for me, but you should do what is in your risk profile, not anyone else's. A legal picture ID would sen me running away fast!
You can use any phone number... doesn't even have to be yours. If you were at grandma's when you signed up you could use hers. It's not for identification purposes.
I surely didn't know that! But it's cool. I haven't had any issues. If I do in the future I'll use the blocking software.
So use your liberal friend's ?
Be careful. Parler is compromised. I'm not sure who is behind it.

photo id proof was required to reply / comment with links and images otherwise it was 'limited use'
Ahhhhh. Maybe I joined after that requirement? I've been able to reply and comment, but I didn't join until Dec. 18th. Telling the truth, I am still figuring out how all these new apps work.
They send a code via text to verify it's you, so that's a detriment. I don't think they have an alternate way, to be honest. But I don't know. I was very hesitant until my friends reported no spam calls from it, etc, so I finally did it.
I am sorry to learn of that. I don't think there is another option. Be blessed.
Yeah me neither. Good for you. For your information I don't use any phone apps at all. my husabnd is a software engineer and he doesn't trust them. I am blessed to be able to do my work (legal research) and have a window open to this site and others to kibbitz with Frens between work and other things. It's a very blessed life. I'm done here.
They required your license to be verified not to join and they definitely suck at verification, but I know who I am and don't care if others don't;
Bongino is an owner. He is contacted with Fox. It's not Fox so much as the personalities, and Dan does have friends and acquaintances who are going to help him promote. That's why we network and/or ask our noted friends to promote. Their promotion doesn't make Parler a bad place; and
once upon a time in America politicians trusted the Secret Service no matter their political position. Biden has made the Secret Service and the National Guard's political position an issue. Adding to that mistruth doesn't help but aids in the Dems' continued strategy of division to the same extent that silly arguments about Parler really have no weight. Either you want to go there or you don't. Either you trust them or you don't.
I'm not happy with Bongino's lack of understanding of how elections cannot be run when the fraud cannot be countered and eradicated before 2022, but I still think he's a good and patriotic man. He loves this country, and I appreciate what he does, though I do try to challenge his narrow-minded nature when it comes to overcoming the steal.
Agree. I once knew a dude who was some kind of military security for Obama during his presidency (not secret service but I dont remember any details about what he did other than it being security). Was a huge Trump supporter, hated Obama, but did the job ‘cause it was his job.
Where are you challenging him? Parler? Has he ever said why he just gave up on the election fraud and went so hard pushing the 2022/2024 stuff?
On Rumble. And no. He ignores the issue altogether. He was following it when Tucker Carlson had Bobinski's interview, but he slowly let the issue fade. I just keep commenting when I listen, and I kind of listen now when there is nothing on and I have to do something boring like ironing. I can rant and rave while I do the task. :-)
I should clarify, I do so politely. Bongino isn't an enemy. He just isn't putting the whole puzzle together, and I'm truly finding it hard to believe he can look through that camera lens and not see the big elephant in the room. There is no way of Republicans ever winning any election unless we have an intervention in the stolen election of 2020 and a complete rehab of our voting system. There won't be a 2022 or a 2024 election that is a real election, and thus the Republicans aren't the only ones missing in action. Our Republic will be gone as well. I do believe that military intervention is the only way, and I strongly believe we are covertly living under military intervention at this time. What I'm not clear on is whether the Democrats know and have guns to their heads to make them play this out or whether they are the clueless people they seem to be. After all, "These people are stupid" does have quite a ring to it.
Thank you for your reply! Yes, it is hard to believe that he’s not putting it together! I’m hoping it’s just because he’s hard-headed and stubborn and not because he’s a plant. I can’t see how he would have had his SS position if he was just a straight up moron. He does seem to be pretty stubborn though, which was illustrated in his little spat with codemonkeyz/Ron over Parler’s security issues.
I wish we could get these people with followings to see things correctly. We would have been able to make a huge difference by now.
Could be that he's being used for misinfo to keep the other side complacent, as he does get a lot if their attention and they run hit pieces on him a lot.
Agreed, but I have yet to hear anyone who isn’t saying the same shit. Bannon and basically everyone else I listen to is talking the same exact way, so I can’t so much fault Bongino only. But it’s definitely frustrating. We clearly have the numbers to vote our way out of this (we just did in Nov) but not against Dominion weighted voting.
Then people should stop listening to them even if they claim to be patriots.
Anyone who isn't retarded knows that the fraud doesn't stop
No one left to listen to
It's Gab for me all the way. Parler had that huge breech... I just don't trust their security.
Yeah... staying away... some strange vibes there... and the banned milo.. thought parler was NOT about censorship.. telegram and gab... that's it
And here... I like here best.
Concur...
Has anybody ever heard bongino talk about sex trafficking? I can't recall any times
Nope snitches get stitches
To be a verified or influencer account you can send in id, other than that it is not required to just be a user. Believe me if you are online or using a cell filing taxes electronically making online purchases, your identity is already out there.
Never entered my Drivers License for anything, this keeps being repeated by people who probably never even tried signing up for an account.
It was to enable posting links or pictures
I don't give my DL to anyone. Even the cops have to beat it out of me if they want to see it.
They do not require a driver's license. Not sure where that rumor got started
not everyone even has one, i dont
Dunno. I hate driving so I just walk and take the bus where I need to go.
I'm tempted to see how quick I can get kicked off of Parler. That would be an interesting experiment in censorship.
GhostEzra did this and had posts removed, he says they're using the same photo scanning censorship software as facebook.
Parler is for normies and neocons. Gab is way better.
This is a honeypot. Amazon engineers. Amazon servers. Loudmouths praising.
I'll pass.
Telegram asks for the same....
I have sub'd to both, Telegram requires a lot more info than Parler.
I never validated my account with my ID, and it was only during the last days of the service did they start requiring tougher validation standards regarding commenting on posts. Initially it was up to the individual account to set this in place but eventually they made it a system-wide thing. I'm glad I got in when I did but I've moved on to other things.
Parler was always a trap and always will be.
Gab is the only way anon
Parler appears to be a technical disaster as well, I'd stay way clear of it.
Parler already censored Milo 2x for jokes that violate the tos... I’ll stay on Gab
I really LOVED PARLER.
Oh yeah, and if you delete your account, your email and phone number are retained. You will not get that data deleted off of their servers no matter how politely you ask or how insistent you are over how many months? Half a year for me.
This is supposedly to prevent others from creating an new account to impersonate you, which makes no sense logically speaking. Plus their customer service is shit, the site feels as though they don't know another about user experience, and their security is as if it were designed by freshly graduated uni students (the idea being, you might have all the theories but zero real world experience).
It is either a honeypot or a genuine attempt at social media that was designed by naive idealists. Either way in my humble opinion, it is a mistake that should be condemned to oblivion.
All social media is a trap - same with all big tech- Microsoft-Google-Amazon-YouTube - they all collect whatever they can on whoever they can. There really is no avoiding it.
That is not true, they are not all the same.
just #getongab
It's a little weird that I can't get on parler while using express vpn
Parler is just neocon twitter.
I don't trust it
Use Gab
Parker is absolute bullshit
Parler is terrible. This is Newsmax all over again. Came out of nowhere, was shilled to high hell on .win communities, and turned out to be controlled opposition. Use Gab. They have been around for awhile and have stood by their principles. Consider installed the Dissenter extension (also by Gab), as well.
Your Dl?! frack that scam
I was on Parler. (still am on Parler)
Parler DOES NOT require ID, only a phone number. to subscribe.
Dan Bongino is a solid PATRIOT. Period.
Whomever is pushing this BS has an agenda. Please, as always do your own research, decide for yourself based on knowledge, facts and the truth.
u/#Correct
GAB or nothing
Oh yeah im getting really bad vibes from that place right now.
This is the only sentence anyone needs to hear, when deciding if we shoukd trust Parler or not.
