Former US President Donald Trump announced Wednesday the launch of his own social network, "Truth Social", "to stand up to the tyranny of technology giants."

“I created TruthSocial and the Trump Media and Technology Group to stand up to the tyranny of tech giants,” Trump said in a statement, noting that his new platform will be launched beta next month and become available to the public in the first quarter of next year.

He added that major companies in Silicon Valley "used their unilateral power to silence dissident voices in America."

According to the statement, during the trial period that will start next November, those who wish to open an account on the “Truth Social” platform must receive an “invitation” from it after registering their name on a waiting list on a website designated for this purpose.

In the first quarter of next year, registration will be available to all.

The statement pointed out that the new media arm of the former president, the "Trump Group for Media and Technology", will also provide a video-on-demand service with entertainment programs and "no-wake" podcasts, meaning that is against liberal values.

The three social media giants, "Facebook", "Twitter" and "YouTube", imposed a ban on the Republican billionaire in the wake of the bloody attack launched by a group of his supporters on the Capitol Building on the sixth of last January in an attempt to prevent Congress from certifying the victory of his opponent. Joe Biden for the presidency.

Before his ban, Trump had nearly 89 million followers on Twitter, 35 million on Facebook, and 24 million on Instagram.
