Just in from Gab:
GAB.
Hello Gabbers,
The past week has been one of the most incredible of Gab's existence. First, the totally dishonest New York Times wrote a hit piece on Gab and our community. This caused a massive surge in reservations made for our ICO, bringing us to $1.2 million reserved total in just a few short days.
Next, the FCC repealed Title II regulations and even cited Gab as an example of Edge providers abusing their market power to stifle innovation and censor content. "If anything, recent evidence suggests that hosting services, social media platforms, edge providers, and other providers of virtual Internet infrastructure are more likely to block content on viewpoint grounds."
Finally, today the Twitter Purge began. Dozens of primarily right-wing dissidents were permanently suspended from Twitter without notice. There seemed to be no consistency in the bans as some accounts were allowed to stay, while others were removed. Many more were placed in a temporary timeout and locked out of their accounts for 12 hours or longer. These subjective rules and double standards in enforcing them are a true threat to free speech and expression on the internet.
Together, we are making history. There's a reason mainstream media outlets are attacking Gab. We have a strong core community and we welcome everyone to speak freely. In the past few weeks alone we've added 40,000+ new users from around the world.
Our fundraising efforts have been a massive success. We reserved hundreds of thousands of dollars for our next funding round this week alone from The People; not Saudi Princes or Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists.
Our product is improving quickly. We've recently hired more engineers and have made big improvements. If you haven't signed in for a few weeks it's a great time to check it out or download our latest Android app version.
Thank you all for your continued support. If you want to keep an eye on the progress of our ICO or reserve your investment you can view our new StartEngine Page here: https:// www.startengine.com/gab-select
