Internet researchers, recognizing that evidence lives only as long as the platforms that hold it, raced to capture the public record of Parler before Amazon, Apple, and Google silenced the platform entirely. What they saved — nearly every public post ever made — was not stolen data but the open testimony of a moment in history, now preserved for those who must account for it.
