'''Gab''' is an alternative social networking service to [[Twitter]] created by Andrew Torba that emerged due to blatant disregard for [[free speech]] by liberal social media platforms. It is based in [[Austin]], [[Texas]]. The site is populated with a majority of right-leaning users, although all are welcome. Gab's motto is "Speak Freely" and their mascot (pictured) is a [[frog]].
'''Gab''' is an alternative social networking service to [[Twitter]] created by Andrew Torba that emerged due to blatant disregard for [[free speech]] by liberal social media platforms. It is based in [[Austin]], [[Texas]]. Unlike [[Parler]], Gab owns its own servers, hence [[Big Tech]] cannot pull the plug in its operations. The site is populated with a majority of right-leaning users, although all are welcome. Gab's motto is "Speak Freely" and their mascot (pictured) is a [[frog]].
Gab does not engage in [[censorship]] as liberal social networking sites do (often illegally) against voices, opinions and platforms they do not like. Because of this, Gab has been unjustly attacked by the anti-free speech [[Mainstream Media]] and [[Wikipedia]] as "far-right" and "anti-Semetic".<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gab_(social_network)&oldid=898796870</ref><ref>https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/10/29/18033006/gab-social-media-anti-semitism-neo-nazis-twitter-facebook</ref><ref>https://www.wired.com/story/gab-offline-free-speech-alt-right/</ref><ref>https://www.cnn.com/2018/10/30/tech/gab-anti-semitic-speech-invs/index.html</ref>
