The founder of Parler, a social network favored by conservatives, criticised Twitter on Wednesday after the platform made the unprecedented move of restricting Donald Trump's account, leaving him unable to post for 12 hours.

John Matze, who co-founded Parler in 2018, said in a status update on his social network that the block on the president was made by "cowardly authoritarians," but didn't immediately mention that similar steps had been taken by Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
