Conclusion

Chris Pavlovski's role in various enterprises, including his connection with Devin Nunes, signifies his aim to position Rumble as a formidable contender across multiple industries. The substantial and consistent growth of Rumble's userbase is evident, bolstered by the introduction of Rumble Ads and their integration with Truth Social Ads. However, despite Pavlovski's claims of independence from big tech, evidence suggests otherwise, as Rumble's migration to its own cloud, known as the "Rumble Cloud," remains a work in progress. This is contradictory to assertions made, as Rumble continues to operate on AWS while advocating an anti-big tech stance. While Pavlovski's intentions appear well-meaning, his affiliation with investor Peter Thiel raises questions about control. Additionally, his partnership with Aleks Dugonjic and their shared patent raises curiosity. For Rumble to fully embody an "America First" ethos, the eventual abandonment of Google AdSense and complete migration from AWS are crucial steps. The company's aspirations for such values are clear, but the extent of their achievement remains to be seen.
