Ironically, a one man show in a garage would be more resistant to legal challenges than hosting on aws. If you want to take down my server you have to either issue a warrant to search and seize my home, or a warrant for each of my ISPs, or intervene at the IP block or DNS level.
The outcries over freedom of speech were just pathetic from a technological standpoint, it's a bunch of web 4.0 developers and users who felt entitled to services that even a 90s computer enthusiast would be able to provide.
On some level it's not just Parler's fault, the internet has become more complex, and maybe some ISPs and modems provide some roadblocks like shared IPs and obnoxious firewalls, but after months they are still unable to lift a physical building place computers on property they control. It's like they are either incompetent or purposely looking for refusal of service so they can martyrize themselves.
