Truth Social has begun a phased rollout of its Truth+ streaming platform, aiming to establish a home for content that was “neglected by the big corporations or is at risk of cancellation.”
Once tested and deployed, a Truth+ streaming icon will appear on the platform, the firm stated. iOS users will have to update their Truth Social app to access the streaming service, while no updates are required for Android or Web users.
The company’s streaming technology is touted to be backed by specially designed infrastructure that comes with its own proprietary software stack, servers, and routers. As such, TMTG will reportedly have control over the technology, ensuring the firm is not too dependent on established Big Tech players like Amazon or Microsoft.
“First, we created Truth Social to provide a safe harbor for free speech on the Internet … Now, we’re establishing a reliable home for great TV content that is neglected by the big corporations or is at risk of cancellation,” said TMTG CEO Devin Nunes.
“We are securing our own tech stack and hardware infrastructure to make our new CDN (content delivery network) uncancellable. I look forward, in the near future, to launching many enhancements and adding great, new content to the platform.”
