If you own a building and find out that the owners of a bar that rents space in your building are allowing a terrorist group to plan an insurrection, are you allowed to cancel the lease and evict them? Sure seems like a breach of lease to me.


It's a good analogy, and yes, criminal activity often breaks your lease agreement.


Have you read the "lease" in question?

https://aws.amazon.com/service-terms/

https://aws.amazon.com/aup/

I suspect Amazon is not the one to breach the lease.

Yes, that was my point

> of the thirteen people arrested as of Monday for the breach at the Capitol, none appear to be active users of Parler


As of this Thursday, 82 people have been arrested, according to one news report.


They may mostly use Android Phone. Should we ban them for Shops ?


A lease is just a contract. It can specify conditions for termination. Without reading the contract, it's impossible to know if it is being breached or not.


I think this is a good analogy of where AWS sits here.


Yes, most likely. Eviction is a legal process, involving the courts. Did that happen with Parler?
