(If the FBI is even halfway on their game, they've probably already leveraged Parler to the tune of a couple of dozen informants).
While I'm not in favor of shutting down free speech, unfortunately, there are people who do not think carefully before they "discuss" things on the internet, and don't realize that there are just things you don't say. Unfortunately, many are not very savvy and end up in places they don't understand and become victims of intentionally controversial clickbait.
Apple and Google not wanting to support platforms and apps that include conspiracy theories, threats and hate speech, not to mention outright planning of violence, doesn't qualify as shutting down free speech. They aren't required to provide space for people to engage in that....They are private companies. They don't owe you anything.
So if you don't agree then find another platform to speak on and/or treat them as any other business that you will or won't do business with.
Twitter did supply an explanation in their blog about suspended account:

For purely contextual reasons here are the tweets President Trump was banned for, very innocent taken word for word. But this ban is not about what in in the tweets it is meant as a ban on his followers, nothing more nothing less. Time to dust off your old G. Orwell book-1984 and give it a quick read into the future.
