MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, the Trump ally who pushed voter-fraud conspiracy theories, has just offered a first glimpse at his new social-media site.

The site, currently a static webpage, is called Frank, and uses the URL frankspeech.com. Lindell previously told Insider's Natasha Dailey in early March that the site would be called Vocl.

Frank is set to launch fully in 10 to 14 days, Lindell told "The Eric Metaxas Radio Show" on Tuesday.

Lindell has been secretly creating his own social-media platform over the past four years, he said earlier this month. continue reading

i thought he bought vocl.com?
Unless it’s “Frank.com” this is a downgrade.

What is VOCL?
After being banned from Twitter and YouTube, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a diehard supporter of Trumph, plans to launch a social media site called VOCL by April ’21. The new platform is being quoted to be a cross between Twitter and YouTube.

Lindell, who plans to be CEO of VOCL (an acronym for “Victory Of Chrit’s Love”) claims to be working on this idea for the past 4 years. In an interview given to The Insider, Lindell said, “It’s not like anything you’ve ever seen. It’s all about being able to be vocal again and not to be walking on eggshells. VOCL would be for print, radio, and TV and differ from conservative platforms like Gab and Parler.”

...A website named “Vocal,” a publishing platform similar to Medium where writers can post and monetize articles, already exists. The lawyers for Vocal’s publicly traded parent company, Creatd, Inc., have written to Lindell to change his social media network’s name and surrender ownership of the VOCL.com domain name.

As reviewed by the Daily Beast, the letter quotes, “It is clear that you are acting with bad faith and with intent to profit from Creatd’s mark,” the letter reads, claiming Lindell’s VOCL would “tarnish” the Vocal brand.

The letter further threatened to take legal actions without any further notice if Lindell considers ignoring the warning”.

Vocal is concerned as VOCL’s claim to provide free speech without any boundaries is sure to get the site into some controversies in the future. Being spelled the same way as VOCL and having a closely associated name may impact the brand value of Vocal.media, and the company is therefore concerned about this new social media platform.

While Lindell denied any such issues or concerns, he later said that “We looked into it, and we believe it would be confusing, so we are going to announce a different name and URL.”...

Thanks Grilled!
I really liked Vocl, but i guess better avoid.
What is he going to do with vocl.con now?

trust business insider for business, -not Politics
They always have an axe to grind Trump! imo

Unless it’s “Frank.com” this is a downgrade.

That one is from the guy that sold Voice(.)com for $30M
If he likes Frank(.)com as much as Voice(.)com you can guess what will be the price for that one

Thanks Grilled!

Who knows. Perhaps he will follow through with his Victory Of Christ’s Love campaign, and that it wasn't just some on the fly acronym ploy strategically designed to protect/shield his social media branding vision while doubling to manipulate the heart of the radical right who follows and supports him.

FWIW: VictoryOfChristsLove.com has never been registered before.

Edit: @Samer was it a typo, or did you intentionally write Vocl.con?

 

[Lox]

FrankSpeech.com

In other words "moral responsibility applies".

Frank speech is a *Virtue vs Free speech is a Right.

(*Virtue is a moral excellence)

(Maybe his MyPillow.co (a good example of a small err, dn extension confusion .co vs .com) domain name is just a bit too clever and then it would probably be better to start something like FrankSpeech .com)

Let's see!

Thx @Grilled

Love the enthusiasm.
Follow your dreams, MyPillow guy!

Minute mark 1:30.

Is he literally attempting to entice folks to break YouTube ToS to recruit membership to his platform?

That sounds really stupid. Why would you want a platform where you were forced to follow everybody?
That makes no sense.

[platey]

twitter doesnt have any competition at the moment

neither will it have from this start up

the power and wealth that facebook google and amazon have now is a byproduct of giving power to the people and allowing the people to use the latest technology to create best content that the public upload for free and use the site for free

the power and wealth are secondary not a reason to create a socialmedia platform

people also choose a socialmedia platform on the badis of whether they trust the founder etc

twitter works just fine

isnt broke

and thus doesnt need mending

 

[Jeff Chien]

frank.com is very enticing

This is somebody´s wet dream. There is no way this will become mainstream. May exist among a closed group of like minded people. But not enough for any real profit model.
