I just got home and signed my phone into my wifi network, and suddenly, I get an error message saying that it can't resolve the address api.parler.com. The very first thing I thought of was that the service provider was pulling a Google move. If this is the case, I'm in complete agreement with you.
I think AT&T is putting in fiber in my neighborhood at this moment, as much as I don’t like their customer service, I’d switch in a minute if this deliberate blocking keeps happening on Xfinity.
Why are you playing the game of blocking... there are other options for internet. Wake up. Your money comes from ordinary customers who may be sending their money elsewhere soon.
Because thats how China makes money off their little people. Corporate only lets the rich get richer and the port are controlled and made poorer unless we bow to their rule or join them. I can not believe the United States has become like China. BOHICA
Parler just stopped working for me today and i come to find out Xfinity is blocking it. Time for a new internet provider. Learn not to interfere Xfinity
I just turned off my Wifi that I pay a lot for & now Parler is working!? I gave to use my data for one website? What is that about Xfinity/Comcast? I pay a lot of money for my services and do not appreciate you blocking websites that you say don't conform to your ideas! Seriously messed up! Wow!
Your DNS servers seem to be having trouble resolving *.parler.com and it started sometime yesterday. Using other publicly available DNS server options with the exception of Google's own DNS (not surprised), does not have this issue. Is your company purposefully blocking parler.com with your DNS server configuration? To other Xfinity customers here, I recommend you get on the phone with customer support and complain about this issue. You can also search the web for open and publicly available DNS servers and configure your network connection to use one that works.

On the phone with Xfinity Support. The guy on the other end there says "they do not block anything". I have five devices that from my home on Xfinity will not connect to Parler...I get the DNS error ststement. My friends on Verizon connect to Parler with no issue. He is telling me Parler is "down". I have been on the phone 15-20 minutes so far.
I was able to reach a customer support agent and convince them to submit a trouble ticket to their NOC to look into the matter. Hopefully they'll resolve it ASAP.

@user_0361b1Are you getting any error messages? If so, what are they? And how are you trying to access the website? on a computer or other device?

Xfinity Customer Support,

You should not block any services. I will begin shopping for a new service if this is not resolved.

I’m having the same problem. I will cancel if it isn’t immediately rectified. I need parler far more than I need Comcast.

I've confirmed by using Comcast DNS server at 75.75.75.75 with NSLOOKUP that Parler is no longer being listed. This is censorship.
You can get passed this by using Tor VPN.
