(ETH) – A federal judge has just struck down Parler’s demand that Amazon restore their web hosting services for the social media platform after being removed following the Jan. 6th storming of the U.S. Capitol.

The report states that U.S. District Judge Barbara Rothstein residing in Seattle ruled that Parler has failed to show that it was likely to prevail on the merits of its claims, or that the public interest supported a preliminary injunction requiring the restoration of service according to the report from MSN.

The ruling stated that Parler violated its contract by ignoring repeated warnings to address violent content, including calls to assassinate prominent Democratic politicians, as well as leading business executives and the media on their platform.
