As Twitchy told you earlier, sounds like the Internet has blocked Infowars.
Ok, so not the entire Internet but several large social media outlets have, including Apple, Spotify, and Facebook.
I notice that little @benshapiro has said NOTHING about Facebook banning Infowars.
Will be interesting to see which other "conservatives" either remain silent or throw us under a bus.
Newsflash; You're their next target.

Prison Planet seems angry at Ben Shapiro, and for no reason …
And little? Hrm.
I was on air. I spent the first 15 minutes of the show stating openly that Apple and Facebook should not have banned @Infowars, even though I think the outlet is a flaming dumpster fire. If you're going to attack me, at least be accurate. https://t.co/W5PSIuy7ca

Of course Ben is going to defend Infowars, even if he thinks the outlet is a ‘flaming dumpster fire’. Like most Conservatives, he seems to understand the importance of defending all speech, especially speech we may not agree with. Sure, any outlet that claims that fluoride in the water is turning frogs gay or babbles about vampire goblins (we’re not even making that up) might cause people to question how legitimate they really are but hey, if CNN deserves to be on Facebook so does Alex Jones.
Just sayin’.
@PrisonPlanet stop undermining your own cause with outrage-mongering.

All kidding aside, even if you’re not a fan of Infowars (or if you are), when these big social media companies start banning one outlet it’s a seriously slippery slope (say that five times fast). That’s why Ben and others like him are defending Infowars because to Prison Planet’s point, who’s next?
*gulp*
