One of the foundations of our legal system is that doing something “in a good cause” doesn’t protect you from the consequences of criminal activity. And as much as I agree with the motivations here, this is still “unauthorized access to a protected computer” under current US law.

PARLER GOT FUCKING OWNED BAD...and I mean BAD 😂 "This group of Internet Warriors then used that account, to create a handful of other ADMINISTRATION accounts, and then created a script that ended up creating MILLIONS of fake administration accounts." HOLY SHIT HAHAHA 😂🤣

I’m also interested in the legal implications of this data. Can illegally obtained data that is then dumped on archive.org be used in criminal or civil trial, or is this mess all poisoned? Any legal experts willing to weigh in here?

I was wondering this too. I also thought I saw a post stating that they provided the data to the FBI which seems like it might taint it. I have also seen other posts claiming this is all BS and that Parler provided the data in response to a subpeona

I would believe that the FBI has preservation orders in place with both Parler and AWS and is working on warrants to get their own copies of this data through proper legal means.
