Radio show host Alex Jones said that he has gained 5.6 million new subscribers since he was de-platformed by most of Silicon Valleys tech giants on Monday.

The good news is Infowars has had the highest traffic its ever had 5.6 million new subscribers in the past 48 hours and so has my radio show, Jones told Daily Mail in an exclusive interview. Weve never had this much people signing up for our news letter, podcast, video feeds, theyre all hitting subscribe, subscribe, subscribe.

Facebook, Apple, and YouTube all banned Jones and his network, InfoWars, earlier this week.

Because I play devils advocate, because I play both sides, theyve taken me out of context, they are using me as a test case to try to bring an EU style web censorship, he said. Theyve got mainline Democratic senators saying they ought to restrict Fox News, Tucker Carlson, Matt Drudge, the President himself.

It is evident that he has gained followers despite the ban, or perhaps because of it.

A popular news reporter is gaining a massive amount of followers on Twitter after being banned from Facebook, YouTube, and Apple iTunes.

According to SocialBlade, InfoWars frontman Alex Jones has gained nearly 22,000 followers today. Before his ban from three of the largest tech giants in the world, he was gaining between 200-300 per day.

Likewise, the InfoWars Twitter account is rapidly gaining followers, increasing from a net of about zero new followers per day, to 4,246 today.

This is very anti-free speech, this is very deceptive, he said. The Democrats are trying to demonize free speech, set the precedent to try to restrict free speech and so its a very villainous overall program.

Even after an unprecedented level of censorship, Jones remains undeterred.

Even if I was ever defeated, from other places around the world victory is going to come, this fight for human liberty is unstoppablepeople understand whats happening and were gonna go on to the end whatever the cost is. Were gonna never surrender.

Just data on the Twitter numbers exploding

I can believe their news letter, podcast, video feed subscribers reached 5.6 million in a simple tally but I don't know what it was beforehand.

His subscriber count on YouTube was at 2.5 million.

An odd way to say "getting banned for violating the TOS"

Hm?

Based on U.S. Census Bureau estimates[1] of the voting age population (VAP), turnout of voters casting a vote for President was nearly 1% higher than 2012. Examining overall turnout in the 2016 election, University of Florida Prof. Michael McDonald estimated[349] that 138.8 million Americans cast a ballot in 2016. 65.9 million of those ballots have been counted for Clinton and just under 63 million for Trump, representing 20.3% (Clinton) and 19.4% (Trump) of a census estimate of U.S. population that day of 324 million.

Because people still believe YouTube is trying to destroy InfoWars for political reasons instead of just... Removing a ToS violating channel from their site.

There are probably legitimate stuff that YouTube is trying to kill off their channel, like gun channels, through demonetarizion and random bans for vague violations. Alex Jones' crazy rantings and incitements of violence are nothing like that.

Kinda hard to take all of those claims about censorship seriously when his followers are only ever increasing because he got booted off of a couple of different platforms.
