By Jeff Horwitz and Tim Higgins Alphabet Inc. s Google late Friday suspended Parler, a free-speech focused social-media network favored by conservatives, for failing to moderate incitements to violence and illegal activity, and Apple Inc. threatened to do the same. Google said it acted because of continued posting in the Parler app that seeks to incite ongoing violence in the U.S., which violated its requirements for sufficient moderation of egregious content for apps it distributes. In light of this ongoing and urgent public safety threat, we are suspending the app s listings from the Play Store until it addresses these issues, a Google representative said.
