Gab.com, the website where the suspected Pittsburgh synagogue gunman posted anti-Semitic views, said on Monday it could be back online by this weekend after being asked by its domain provider, GoDaddy Inc, to move to another registrar.
“Spoke with our engineering team and new hosting provider. A conservative estimate is getting Gab.com back online by this weekend,” it said on Twitter, adding that it was aiming to do so even earlier than that.
