Parlor is the social media site and app popular with the American far right and claims over 12 million users.

Citing its poor record of policing violent content, Amazon had given parlor the boot in light of the deadly January 6th riot at the US Capitol, effectively knocking it off line.

That content included calls to assassinate prominent Democratic politicians, business executives and members of the media.

U.

S District Judge Barbara Rothstein refused to grant a preliminary injunction in parlors lawsuit.

That injunction would have required Amazon to restore what she called the quote abusive, violent content found on parlor.

The capital riots, she said, were a quote tragic reminder that inflammatory rhetoric can turn a lawful protest into a violent insurrection.

She added that it was unlikely to prove Amazon breached its contract or violated antitrust law by suspending the service.

In a statement and Amazon spokeswoman welcomed the ruling, saying quote, This was not a case about free speech.

It was about a customer that consistently violated our terms of service.

Parlor has argued there was no evidence apart from anecdotes in the press that it had a role in inciting the capital riots that it was unfair to deprive millions of law abiding Americans.

Ah platform for Free Speech Parlor was not immediately available for comment on Thursday's ruling.
